    Travel documents

Many countries/regions additionally require that a passport is valid for 3 or 6 months beyond the end of your trip. Processing times for passports vary but many countries offer fast-track applications.

    Visit the IATA Travel Centre, Link opens in a new window operated by external parties and may not conform to the same accessibility policies as Cathay Pacific website for specific destination requirements on passport validity.

    Visas

    You may need a visa in order to enter your chosen destination, depending on:

    • your nationality
    • the purpose of your trip
    • your connecting flights

    Visit the IATA Travel Centre, Link opens in a new window operated by external parties and may not conform to the same accessibility policies as Cathay Pacific website to check whether you need a visa and the relevant fees.
