What I Do

I maintain the visa requirement database on EntryPolicies — which covers entry rules across 95+ countries and 95+ passports. I track changes in visa-free access, eVisa programs, and border policies, and update the site when rules change.

How I Verify Data

Every entry requirement page on EntryPolicies is built from structured data sourced from:

• IATA Timatic — the airline industry's standard visa requirement database, used by airlines worldwide for boarding checks
• Official government embassy websites — I cross-check Timatic data against each country's official embassy or consulate website
• US Federal Register — for US visa policy changes
• EU EUR-Lex — for EU visa and border policy regulations

When I find a discrepancy between sources, I note it in the page and prioritize the government source. I update the database when official sources change.

Areas of Focus

• Global visa requirement analysis (visa-free, eVisa, visa on arrival, visa required)
• Passport power rankings and mobility comparison
• Schengen area entry rules and the 90/180-day calculator
• ETIAS and electronic travel authorization programs
• Digital nomad visa comparisons
