The Syrian Transitional Government imposes entry visa fees (visa on arrival or e-visa) on its visitors based on a "principle of reciprocity"[1] – as of February 2025 it is still unclear to whom it applies – meanwhile Israeli citizens are banned from entering or transiting through the country, Iranian citizens are required to obtain a prior authorization, and Lebanese citizens who do not hold a valid residence permit in another country or do not have at least one family member who is a Syrian citizen are required to obtain a prior visa.[2][3][1]
Lebanese or Iranian visitors can obtain a visa from one of the Syrian diplomatic missions.
