According to TASS citing ATOR, the updated process requires an additional verification step to ensure the accuracy of contact information during the digital registration process.
New requirements for travelers
The IMUGA declaration remains a mandatory requirement for all foreign tourists, including children. While the updated system allows travelers to add family members or groups during the application, the official rule requiring a personal declaration for every individual traveler still stands.
To complete the process, travelers must visit the official IMUGA website, provide a valid email address, and enter a one-time code sent to that address before filling out the rest of the required data.
After submitting the form, travelers must save the generated QR code for presentation. It is important to note that the declaration is only required upon arrival; no such filing is necessary when departing the Maldives. For infants, parents are permitted to use their own email addresses to complete the registration.
Context
IMUGA is the mandatory digital declaration system used by the Maldives to manage traveler information. ATOR is a professional association of tour operators.
