In Estonia as an Alien

By agreement in the portal we refer to a person, who is not an Estonian citizen, as an alien. An alien can be in Estonia on the basis of a residence document or visa or by means of an exemption from the requirement of a visa. There is always operational information on the homepage of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs about the countries, which citizens do not require a visa for staying in Estonia. As a rule, in case of the exemption from the requirement of a visa one can stay in Estonia for 90 days within a 6-month period. The citizens of other countries require a visa to stay in Estonia. As of 21 December 2007, Estonia is a part of the Schengen visa area.
