30 day visa exemption, always 30 day?

[YogaVeg]

Thanks for the help,

I looked but don't see the answer.

 

Is that always 30 days or can they give less days?

 

(I know they can deny altogether, and I've heard of folks in trouble just getting 7 days)

 

This is my question: if  produced proof of onward travel that's 2 weeks in the future, do they ever just give the 2 weeks or is an automatic 30 days (if all else goes well)?

 

I've got a burner Tix and would prob extend so...

It is always 30 days.

If you come from a country they only give 15 days, and not 30?

I believe you are thinking of the distinction between G7 and other countries for visa exempt entry by land. That distinction no longer exists. Tourist extensions have been 30 days for everyone for a long time. There are a few nationalities (mostly African countries) that are not allowed extensions on their tourist visa entries.

 

As stated above, those applying for extensions of their tourist visa entries or visa exempt entries invariably get 30 days, unless rejected in which case they get 7 days to leave the country.

There is no exemption for 15-day. For 55 countries, it is 30-day and for Korea, Brazil, Peru, Argentina and Chile will get 90 days.

Thanks folks!

I appreciate it.

Years ago I wandered into Mexico and said the wrong thing and the IO happily shorted me days, at that time they could write whatever they wanted (probably still can) and wise folks would slip them some pesos to grease the wheels...

The maximum they can give is 30 days. However, they can give any number of days up to 30 days. 

 

They will, usually, only give less if they are not happy that your reason for entry is genuinely tourism. 

 

They will still give 30 days even if you have a flight out dated within 2 weeks.

It can be 14, 30 or 90 depending on nationality.
