Most applicants choose the Easy Visitor Permit for trips related to tourism, family visits, or recreation. It's issued for a single entry and valid for 30 days/60 days from the entry date.

It's also possible to apply online for a Papua New Guinea visa for purposes like business, employment, entertainment, education, and permanent residence.
