All travellers are required to submit the Traveller Declaration within 96 hours to the flight time, during arrival and departure.
Are you planning a tropical getaway to the Maldives? The Maldives is a popular destination for its stunning beaches, crystal clear waters, and luxurious resorts. If you're a UK citizen, you'll be happy to know that the entry requirements for Maldives are relatively straightforward.
One of the most significant changes due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic is that a PCR test is no longer required to enter Maldives. This is great news for travellers who have been put off by the additional cost and inconvenience of taking a test prior to travel.
However, all travellers must still submit a self-declarative health declaration within 96 hours prior to travel through the online portal of Maldives Immigration, "Imuga", imuga.immigration.gov.mv . This is a simple form that asks about your health and travel history.
To enter Maldives, a passport valid for six months is required by all nationals. Tourist visas for 30 days are issued on arrival only and are free of charge to all visitors in possession of a passport. This means that you don't need to apply for a visa in advance, you will be granted one automatically when you arrive at the airport.
The Maldives is a great destination for those looking for a relaxing holiday in a tropical paradise. With no PCR test required, it's now even more accessible for all travellers. Remember to fill out your health declaration before you travel, and make sure your passport is valid for at least six months. With that taken care of, you can sit back and enjoy the sun, sea and sand of the Maldives.
Traveller Health Declaration has to be filled and submitted via the online portal of Maldives Immigration, “Imuga” https://imuga.immigration.gov.mv/traveller

Final word.
"When completing the traveller declaration, you will need to have a copy of your passport, flight and accommodation details. Also, you will need a 'selfie' to upload to the portal.
I have seen a significant improvement in pre-arrival times since this has been introduced on the 15th of July 2022, defiantly worth the 10 minutes upfront!
Oh, don't forget, you no longer need to complete a pre departure declaration from the 15th of August 2024, this move reflects the government's dedication to be a leading travel destination and celebrated for its operational efficiency." Jane
