We have no verified temporary vehicle import rule for this country. We will not show an unverified one: the cost of being wrong is a vehicle held at the border.
The same country with other passports
Length-of-stay rules come from several sources. Some are verified by the OpenVan.camp Editorial team against official sources and show a verification date. The rest are extracted from open sources, most often Wikipedia, and are shown with a source link and the date they were retrieved. Vehicle import rules are shown only once verified. The underlying visa requirement matrix is the passport-index-data dataset (MIT licence), updated 17 February 2026.
Reference data, not legal advice. Rules change without notice — check with the consulate or at the border.
