About the Suriname visa

Suriname is a small South American country with rainforest covering most of its land, the UNESCO-listed historic centre of Paramaribo and a large community of Indian origin. Indian passport holders can apply for a Suriname e-Visa online.

Tourist e-Visas and entry fees vary by length of stay and number of entries. Accommodation requirements are conditional on the visa you choose.

When accommodation proof is needed, a refundable hotel booking is generally safer than a non-refundable booking.
