Edition notes
Each monthly link check is an edition. These are the changes worth knowing about, newest first. Follow them in the RSS feed.
Edition
November 2026
- Added An official eVisa and ETA websites guide: the government site and operator, and the fee where an official page gives one, for 56 eVisa, travel authorisation and arrival-card schemes in 44 countries, with each government's warning about lookalike sites where it publishes one.
- Removed The country-by-country travel authorisation and arrival card links from Visas & entry (UK ETA, ESTA, K-ETA and the rest); they moved to the new guide, with the quoted lookalike warnings. EES and ETIAS stay.
- Added A currency by country table, grouped by continent with currency symbols, and a list of the countries that use the euro; each country's quick facts link to it.
- Added Mains voltage and frequency, such as 230 V, 50 Hz, next to the plug types in each country's quick facts and in the plug types table.
- Added A one-sentence summary at the top of each country's quick facts, with its plug types, driving side, currency and emergency numbers.
- Added A few in-season picks from different continents at the top of each month guide, and a link to next month's guide on the homepage.
- Added Official registers for looking up a travel company in the UK, four US states, three Canadian provinces, Australia and the EU, in the guide to checking whether a travel website is legit.
- Added Country codes, such as GB, GBR, JP or CZE, in the filter on the countries page.
- Added National government sources for the emergency numbers on Japan's, Spain's, Mexico's, Peru's, Canada's, the United States', Brazil's, Thailand's and Australia's pages, next to UK government advice.
- Added Practical rules cited to the body that sets them on France's, Italy's, Spain's, Mexico's, Peru's, Canada's, the United States', Brazil's, Thailand's and Australia's pages, such as Crit'Air stickers, Machu Picchu tickets, Thailand's vape ban and Uluṟu's park pass.
- Added Official sites next to the Wikivoyage guides for most top destinations on the same pages, but only for Bangkok on Thailand's and Machu Picchu on Peru's; Iguaçu Falls links its park concessionaire's visitor site.
- Replaced Uncited tips on the same pages with ones cited to the body that sets each rule, or to GOV.UK for safety and health warnings; Italy's Trevi Fountain line now cites the city's own page.
- Dropped Unsourced claims from the same pages, such as cheap early TGV fares, Spanish meal times, Thailand's "temple is closed" scam and Australia's Sydney–Perth road distance.
- Added Austria's 2027 vignette on the motorway vignettes page: digital only, €108.90 from 1 January 2027 (€106.80 if bought by 31 December 2026), valid from 1 December 2026; also Switzerland's 2027 validity dates and Hungary's annual validity date. Czechia, Hungary, Slovakia, Slovenia and Romania had no 2027 prices from their operators, so their prices are labelled as 2026 or current ones.
- Corrected Venice's access fee: the 2026 trial has ended, and the page now points to the city's 2027 dates.
- Corrected Mexico's cyclone season: the Pacific season starts on 15 May, not June, according to the Navy's port notices.
- Corrected Thailand's visa exemption: not every visa-exempt visitor gets 30 days; the page now follows the Foreign Ministry's list.
Edition
October 2026
- Added 50 country pages, from 41 to 91, including Slovakia, Hong Kong, Uzbekistan and the Cook Islands.
- Added A motorway vignettes guide with the official e-vignette shop, 2026 car prices and each operator's warning about resellers for 8 countries, from Austria to Romania.
- Added Two new lists: Visas & entry and Budget & solo.
- Removed Citizen Remote, a commercial visa assistance service, from Digital nomad.
- Corrected Emergency numbers for Albania and the Maldives, checked against GOV.UK.
- Replaced GOV.UK with Czech sources for Czechia's ID, ticket and tram tips. The ID tip now gives the Interior Ministry's rule that non-EU visitors must show a valid travel document to police, in place of GOV.UK's advice that police normally accept a passport scan.
- Added Official tourism or guide-service sites next to the Wikivoyage guides for Czechia's top destinations.
- Replaced Uruguay's English Ministry of Tourism pages on tourist tax benefits and Cabo Polonio, which stopped loading, with the Spanish versions.
- Rejected welcomenepal.com. Nepal's old tourism domain now serves gambling, so the Nepal page links ntb.gov.np instead.
- Dropped Prices, dated details and unsourced claims from country pages.
