Starting September 2025, Latvia will enforce stricter entry rules for third-country nationals lacking a Latvian-issued visa or residence permit. The new regulation, aimed at boosting national security, mandates detailed pre-entry screening 48 hours before arrival. Travelers must disclose their travel plans, destination, route, and information about relatives’ government or military roles. The move especially targets Russian and Belarusian nationals, as Latvia fills security gaps overlooked by other EU states. Diplomats are exempt from the rules.
