Applying for a multiple-entry visa as a first-time visitor
First-time visitors to Myanmar are not eligible to apply for the Multiple Journey Entry Education Visa.
How to avoid it: Apply for a single-entry Education Visa first. You can request the multiple-entry version on a later trip.
False or inaccurate information on the application
The application form requires you to declare that all the details you give are true and correct, and that you will only do activities that match your visa's purpose. Myanmar law allows legal action against anyone who breaks this.
How to avoid it: Make sure every answer on the form matches your passport and other documents exactly, and that your plans in Myanmar match your visa's stated purpose.
