Visas

Citizens of most Western European countries, the USA and most Commonwealth countries are granted a free entry permit at the border. The standard stay permitted is two weeks, although if you ask for longer you may be lucky.

For extensions, visit the Department of Immigration & Passport Services (2232 3771, 2232 1110; PO Box 363, Maseru 100) in Maseru.

Citizens of other countries must pay for single-entry visa (around $4.50) or multiple-entry visa (around $7). Pretoria is the place to obtain visas for other African countries.
