1. A valid foreign passport.
All visitors arriving in the FSM must possess and present proof of citizenship or nationality in the form of a valid passport or other travel document issued by the government of the country of citizenship or nationality. The document must be valid for at least 120 days after the date of entry into the territory of the FSM. Citizens and nationals of the FSM, the Republic of Palau, the Republic of the Marshall Islands or the United States of America may prove their citizenship or nationality by presenting a passport, birth certificate or entry permit to the FSM.
2. A round-trip ticket.
Each visitor must demonstrate the ability to travel further outside of the FSM and leave the FSM at the conclusion of the visit. This may be demonstrated by the possession of a return or onward ticket to a destination outside the FSM to which their travel documents authorize entry.
