How this tool works
We read the official notice for each pair and record the date. Nothing here is generated; a pair with no written check is not shown.
How we checkNo visa. German passport holders can stay in Palau up to 90 days in any 180 under the EU visa waiver.
Palau's immigration page says Palau's visa-waiver agreement with the EU lets citizens of Schengen states stay without a visa for up to 90 days in any 180, and the German Foreign Office gives the same figure and asks for a passport valid 6 months beyond the stay. The Palau Visitors Authority describes a general 30-day visa on arrival; for Schengen passports, Palau immigration and the German Foreign Office both give 90 days in any 180.
