Russian Federation to Haiti visa requirements

Russian ordinary passport holders do NOT need a visa for Haiti. They can enter visa-free for tourism for up to 90 days (3 months), provided their passport is valid for at least 6 months and they pay a US$10 tourist fee in cash on arrival at the airport. As of May 2026, Haiti permits citizens of most countries — including Russia — to enter without a pre-arranged visa for tourism and short visits. Russia is not on Haiti's short list of visa-required nationalities (Dominican Republic, Panama, Colombia, Cuba, Syria, Libya, Iran, Vietnam, Yemen), so a Russian ordinary passport holder is admitted visa-free for up to 90 days. Entry conditions are straightforward: a passport valid for at least six months beyond arrival, a US$10 tourist fee payable in cash at the airport, and typically proof of onward/return travel and accommodation. Haiti is in the Caribbean and is not part of the Schengen area, so Schengen 90/180 and ETIAS rules do not apply. Note that Haiti has faced significant political instability and security concerns, and many governments advise against travel; visa-free entry remains in effect but travelers should check current security and flight-availability conditions before booking.
