The Ministry of Citizenship is moving to implement the online processing of visa applications for visiting non-nationals in order to make the process hassle-free and reduce cases of fraud.
Minister of Citizenship Winston Felix on Wednesday stated that up until September of this year, 1,163 visas were issued to nationals from 76 different countries in various categories.
The minister, however, noted that often persons are faced with traveling long distances to apply for permits to enter Guyana, given the location of the high commissions, embassies and consular offices in those countries.
