We are planning to travel to Tonga by Ocenaia cruises in mid January 2026. We both hold Botswana passports. I found out last week that we need a visa to travel to Tonga. However, I have not been able to confirm from their Immigration authorities since the one email that was given on their website bounced back. I received assistance from JoAnn who sent me some information along with another email address. I am in the process of writing to that email address to see whether i can get information. Meanwhile, my travel agent is finding out from the cruise line whether they have any special visa exemption for their cruise passengers who go there on a day trip.
Does anyone have any suggestions that I could work on to get some light on this matter?\
Thanks,
Jay

I did a daytrip from Fiji to Tonga in the summer of 2024. I don't recall any visa issues. I'm a US citizen.
Hi all
My agent got it clarified that Visa may be secured on arrival. Thank you all.
