How we make money

Arrival Kit is free. Some links on this site, such as eSIM, airport transfer and tour bookings, are affiliate links. When you buy through them, the provider pays us a commission. You pay the same price.

Commissions never change which option we show as cheapest. The eSIM picker ranks plans by price only, and the airport guides list free options like the bus and Grab alongside paid ones.

Information that has no affiliate link, such as the official e-visa portal and scam warnings, is there because you need it.

thank you
