About Diplomatic Visa to Syria

The Syrian Diplomatic Visa, also known as the Syrian Diplomatic Visa, is an official visa issued to individuals traveling to Syria on behalf of a state, embassy, consulate, or international organization. The visa is different from tourist, business, and work visas because it is only intended for official diplomatic missions.

The visa is used by diplomats, embassy staff, consular officers, government representatives, and representatives of international organizations that have an official mission in Syria.

The application must be submitted before departure and may require diplomatic notes, official invitations or other documents proving the nature of the mission. The requirements may vary depending on nationality, the purpose of the mission and the decision of the Syrian authorities.

Swedish citizens traveling to Syria on official diplomatic missions may need a diplomatic visa even if they hold a diplomatic passport or service passport. The final requirement is always determined by the Syrian authorities.

The period of validity and permitted length of stay vary depending on the duration of the assignment and the conditions specified in the visa.

You will need the following documents to apply:

• Completed visa application
• Copy of passport information page
• The passport must be valid at least 6 months after the date of entry
• Visa photo
• Diplomatic or service passport, if applicable
• Official diplomatic note from the relevant authority or organisation
• Letter of invitation or confirmation from the receiving authority in Syria if applicable
• Documents proving the purpose of the diplomatic mission

Syria can change visa rules and document requirements at short notice. It is therefore important to check the current rules before submitting the application.
