Visa on Arrival can be applied as follows :

Travelers are encouraged to apply visa at their respective country where there is a Myanmar Embassy or Myanmar Mission. However Ministry of Tourism is aware of the challenge faced by potential tourists from countries without Myanmar Embassy or Mission.
Therefore Visa On Arrival will be granted with prior application and visa approval process. Please send email to visa@mail4u.com.mm if you want to know if you are eligible for Visa On Arrival.
Priority will be given to Travelers who do not have a Myanmar Embassy or Myanmar Mission at their respective country.
Third country resident foreigners who are living in a country where there is Myanmar Embassy and / or Foreign Tourists who have difficulty in obtaining normal visa in time will be given second priority consideration for Pre-arranged visa on arrival.
Applicants who Pre-paid Packages (or already bought their tour package)
with exact Hotel, Transport, Guide and the travel Plan mentioned.
Applicants must sign an agreement that there will be no involvement in Politics nor Religion during his/her stay in Myanmar and that they will stick to the Plan mentioned in the Myanmar Visa on Arrival Application.

Authorized Agents no longer need to submit application directly to Immigration Department in Yangon starting from 16th May, 2011.

What does this mean for you? If your application is approved, you will received an official letter via email which can be printed out and use it as normal visa.

Dear Mr. Sonny,

Bill Harrison, a frequent visitor to Myanmar, recommended your company to help me with my travels in Myanmar (in February-March of this year). He said I should contact AYE, which I did.
She was a wonderful help to me and my sister; making reservations, air-travel arrangements, pick-ups from the airport.....she did a very professional job, processing our visas and passports and all those necessary things. We always felt we were in competent hands throughout our visit.
I don't usually write this kind of letter....but in Aye's case, I think she deserves an extra special recommendation. We met at the Park-Royal Hotel, and went over all the details of our travels. For such a young person, I found her exceedingly professional, courteous, and STRONG! She is such an asset to your business, and I hope you appreciate that! She was not only attentive to every detail, but sincerely wanted to know our personal experience. I already had fallen in love with the people of Myanmar, but meeting AYE, I was awed by her composure, kindness, and professionalism! You are so lucky to have her in your employ! She is the finest representative of your country that you could have.

Best regards,
Dottie Leroux (a very happy traveler!!)

Dear Aye, this is Ben Doherty here.

I don't know if you remember me, but earlier this year I travelled to Myanmar after your assistance in getting a visa. I had a wonderful holiday, I met up with an old friend (who now lives in Yangon) and we enjoyed seeing your country very much. Your service in organising my visa was excellent. It was very simple and easy to do.

I would like to visit my friend in Myanmar again in October (we are thinking of going to Bago and to Inle Lake) and I am wondering if you would be able to assist me again. But I have that the visa on arrival service has been discontinued in Myanmar, and I am not sure if this applies to the pre-approved visa service you offer.

Could you please advise if your service is still available?

Thank you very much for your assistance,

Kind regards,
Ben

Dear Aye,

I just want to thank you and your staff for helping to make my trip to Myanmar so enjoyable. The visa on arrival went very smoothly and the hotel rate was very good. I had a wonderful time and may plan to return a the end of the year since it is so convenient from Chiangmai flying with Air Bagan. I will contact you again if I do go. L Opera Italian restaurant in Yangon was so beautiful and is one of my favourite. :)

Kind regards,
Tim Daniell

Dear Aye,

Have eventually arrived back home in Australia, feeling a little tired.
I must take this opportunity to thank you for all the help you gave me in making my trip so enjoyable, without your help it would never have been possible. Everything you organized went very well. The hotels were very good, the flights although a little late at times also went well, you have exceptional organizing skills and your company should be very proud of you.
You have a beautiful country which I enjoy visiting and hope to return to shortly.
Also what makes your country so exceptional are it's people, they must be the most polite, helpful, and friendly people in the world.
As I mentioned I am looking forward to returning, are there other places you could recommend?
I guess you have heard enough of my raving, it was good to see your smiling face once again and thank you once again for all your help and look forward to traveling over there again soon.

Take care and please pass on my regards to everyone at Magado

It was a pleasure dealing with Aye( mostly), plus Cathy+ Mie Mie before. Everything went smoothly with my trip this time, with visits to: (1) Mergui (2) Sittwe/Mrauk-U (3) Mandalay ( Sagaing paleik, Inwa, Amarapura + Monywa) What I did notice, and I hear other tourists say the same thing, is that when you are due to go somewhere, or when you return from a trip, there is always somebody waiting for you, to take you where you want to go-for example, Aung Myint and I were on the river trip, up to Pambang Village ( Tattooed Ladies), for about 7 hours. When our boat returned to the river bank where we starts, our jeep was waiting there, turned around pointing in the right direction, Mr. Driver appeared from somewhere and ...off we went! Foreigners like to be punctual, but Myanmar People are usually there early!

Dear Aye,

Thank you very much for your nice wishes. We had a great time in Myanmar, and we appreciated a lot your help regarding our lost luggage. Everything you arranged us was perfect (hotels, flights, etc.). Thank you very much for all your attentions.
Please forward this email to your boss to let him know how much we appreciate your help an services.
Hoping to see you again.

Best regards,
Oscar Maldonado

Dear Aye,

John and Myself would like to thank you for a lovely holiday that you organized for us. May I say that the whole trip ran very well and we had no trouble at all, the side tours were would class.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all the tour guides who made our trip so pleasurable and made everything run very smoothly. We will try and let as many people know about your company and the services that you offer.

Again thank you so much
Kind regards,
Martin and John.

Dear Aye,

How are you? I hope that fine.
We finished our trip. All was OK.
We visited 4 countries, but Myanmar was the best. The most beautiful was Bagan and of course Shwedagon pagoda.
We were many times wet – Water Festival – the most on the trip to the Gold stone. We go up on foot and in the middle of way – about 15 children – we were wet from the head to the foot.
All hotels, transport, flights, boat – good sometimes excellent.
Many thanks for your help with organization of our trip.

Best regards,
Norbert
Dear

Thank you Cathy, we had a wonderful time on our trip, we especially liked Myanmar. The Hotels you had us staying at were excellent. The New Year’s water festival was extraordinary fun, well done for Yangon.
The one criticism that I have is with Air Mandalay, besides the mix up with the no tickets in Bagan, their airplane schedules were not consistent with the times on our iternerary. I would not recommend Air Mandalay.
The Magado agent in Heho, Mr. Ton Tung was very helpful.
Cathy, you were also very helpful and we are all grateful for your help in arranging our Myanmar Trip. Thank you again. We would certainly recommend Magado as Travel Agents!!

Magado Travel, Myanmar

Has anybody any experience of this travel agent in Myanmar. They seem to offer very competitive prices. They also offer the option of paying by credit card before arrival in Myanmar which would mean that I would not have to carry so much US$ cash around/ Just wondered if they are reliable/ safe.

Thanks
Helen

I used Magado for several hotel bookings last Oct/Nov. However, at that time they did not offer credit card payment. After all of our requests had been processed, they sent us an account with a final balance statement by email. We gave them the information on our flight to Yangon and when we arrived, they sent a representative to meet us at the airport. That is when we paid them and received vouchers for the hotels. This got us a free ride form the airport to our hotel in Yangon. So unfortunately, I cannot comment on the security of a credit card transaction.
On the other hand, Magado was very helpful with our arrangements and did a superb job of getting us exactly what we wanted and even located and booked a specific hotel for us that was not on their web site, at our request. A man named William (Ohn Win Tain in Burmese) made all of our arrangements and met us at the airport in Yangon. He was very helpful with suggestions on how to get to a few “out of the way” places we wanted to visit. He arranged a taxi to get us out to Air Mandalay’s office to finalize our bookings and accompanied us to make sure all went well. He also arranged to have 2 women meet us at our hotel to exchange money at a price that was very competitive with the money changers at the big market. This allowed us to change our money in a very secure situation and they made sure that we re-counted the amount to confirm it was correct… all in the comfort of our hotel.
Our experience with Magado was very positive.

Dear Cathy,

It was a pleasure for me to have the dinner with you in Yangon. The last day of my journey in Myanmar I went an other time to the same restaurant and had a fantastic meal.
Thank you very much for your help, you made a very good job.
I already recommended you to other tourists in Myanmar and also to friends here in Switzerland.
I hope to come back again to your beautiful country.
So at all, I had a fantastic time in Myanmar.
Thank you very much again and have a good time.

Kind Regards,
Martin

Dear Aye,

It was nice to be in touch to your office and you before our departure. The communication by e-mail was so easy and smooth that it was nearly incredible. But we were to see in Yangon airport and in the lobby in Yuzana hotel that it was really possible: to have so good servie and help from strange people in strange country (from our point of view). You made our week in Myanmar unforgettable.

Thank you Miss Aye and Magado Travel! We wish you all happy new year 2009 and happy tourist in your beautiful country.

My name is Michael J. Fisher and my passport photo is attached. I used your excellent Visa on Arrival services for a trip to Myanmar this past March. I'm travelling to Myanmar again this May with Lawrence H. Lincoln. I understand that he has already sent hi Visa on Arrival information and request to you for our trip this May.

Dear Cathy,

This is thank you very warmly for the assistance you provided to us in obtaining visas on arrival at the start of our recent visit to Myanmar. The arrangement worked perfectly: our subsequent trip was fabulously successful as a result. You and Ms. Aye Mya Oo have our deep apreciation for all the timely assistance you provided. We are particularly grateful that you were able to obtain authorization for us at the last minute after other avenues had proven unfruitful. With your permission, we will recommend your services to other tourists we may know who require visas on arrival in future.

Thanks again for all your help - sine qua non.

Happy New Year!
Very best,
Chris

I used Magado travel on the internet.
http://www.magadotravel.com/

I did actually onle apply 10-12 day before going and they still managed to arrange the visa. Normally one should apply at least 14 days before.

A strange thing happened on the way to Myanmar. I was flying with Air Qatar from Berlin to Doha and Doha to Yangon. The flight from Berlin was delayed with more than three hours, so I missed the connection to Yangon and had to say over night in Doha. I sent an email to Magado to explain that had happened but they was already at the airport to meet me. Qatar Airways flight to Yangon. The girl at the check in counter asked to see my visa documents. I show here my visa on arrival from. She looked at it and said, that is only authorized by the police not the goverment. I have to call Yangon it will take at least 15 minutes to have an answer from them. I was only 20 minutes left before the gate was going to be closed so I was about to miss my second connection in a row. Yangon called back 15 minutes later and said that everything was in order. I ran up to the gate and managed to reach it before closing. One and a half hour later I was in Yangon, three immigration offices were waiting, they check my offices asked for photos to put on the Visa, I didn't know that I should have brought any photos so didn't have any. The offices said, no problem I write it out anyway I don't think there will be any problem.

Three days later a Young girls appeared at Pyin Oo Lwin guesthouse, she was the manager for Magado travel and asked for their fee for the visa on arrival work. They had also booked domestic flights in Myanmar, which turned out to be cheaper to book there than at any one else in Myanmar. I had no impression that this was a government run travel company, but they apparently do have good connecitons with the authorities.

I would definitely use Magado travel the next time I go to Myanmar both for visa on arrival and booking of domestic flights.

Dear Aye,

We had a wonderful visit in your beautiful country. I thank you very much for your assistance and look forward to visiting Myanmar again february next year. I have informed my travel agent that I was impressed about your first calss service.

Best regards and all the best to you and your family.

Jukka Kupila

Hello Myanmar Visa,

Thank you for your fast and efficient service. I'm looking forward to meeting with you at Yangon airport. We will bring the money you asked.

Am I right to believe there is only 1 "approval letter" for me and Erik?

Can you send me your telephone number, for the case my flight from Brussels to Bangkok gets delayed, so I can call you from Bangkok in case we don't make it on time (just to make sure, you never know). Thanks again for the service,

Best regards,
Ivan (Belgium)

Dear Myanmar Visa:

My wife and I are most grateful for your very kind assistance in processing our request for a "VISA On Arrival" letter. We were able to down-load your letter clearly and in an excellent format for printing. As instructed, we will show this letter to the airline (TG) as a pre-condition for obtaining a boarding pass, and we bring with us two passport-sized photos for our VISAs.

We are anxious to meet your representative at the immigration counter at Yangon International Airport upon our arrival and most anxious to see your beautiful country. Warmest regards,

Donald and Reina (USA)

Dear Myanmar Visa

We thank you very much for your e-mail. I confirm you that I have received properly your message with the file attached with the approval letter of Visa on arrival.

Our hotel in Yagon is PANORAMA HOTEL.

Looking forward to meet you at the Yangon Airport.

Best regards
Maria (Spain)

Dear Myanmar Visa

Thank you, we already received the approval letter from the attachment. How much we

have to pay for this approval letter?

Dear San San,

We can all get visas on arrival in Nepal easily. It costs $30 per person.
It is always more of a difficulty to get visas for Myanmar. Last time we use Magado Travel. They have been very dependable. We must apply in advance for visa on arrival. We must send them all of the information listed below with a digital picture of each person's passport and a picture of themselves. After we apply they submit the application to the goverment. When they receive they send us a letter stating that we have permission to get a visa on arrival. We must show this in order to board the flight to Myanmar.
Mie Mie from Magado Travel usually handles everything and meets us at the airport. She process the visa there for us. We have done this several times with her and everything has gone very smoothly each time. We must apply as a group, however. Evidently the visa on arrival service is not available for individual travel.
I will copy this to Mie Mie. Please let her know who will be coming and send all of the necessary information to her as soon as possible.
If you have any more questions about the visa on arrival for Myanmar you can contact me or write to Mie Mie directly.

Jim

Hi Aye,
I have received a copy of the approval letter. Thanks for keeping me posed and the amazingly quick service. Yes, I wil bring 2 photos of mine for the official paperwork.
Thanks again and look forward to meeting you at the Yangon airport on the date.

Dailoc.

Dear Cathy and Staff,

I just wanted to write and thank you for all your hard working my guest her visa. I was so upset that her vacation would be ruined, but you saved the day and she now gets to come to your wonderful country! I will continue to recommend you in the future.

Best, Andrea
