Myanmar to offer visa on arrival to Chinese, Indian tourists September 14, 2023 at 11:07PM

Myanmar will offer visas on arrival to Chinese and Indian tourists, state media reported, as the ruling junta seeks to lure back foreign visitors and their cash. A start date for the one-year trial scheme will be announced soon. The military is struggling to crush opposition to its 2021 coup and has admitted there are swathes of the country it does not fully control. Myanmar opened up to tourists in 2011 following decades of military rule, becoming popular with travellers.
