Do I need a VISA for Chile?

While some countries from around the world need previous authorization to enter Chile or a VISA, the majority of the nations of the European Union don’t need it if the stay is up to 90 days.

As a result of this, if you have a Spanish, German, French, Italian, or British passport, you won’t have to go through any additional procedure.

Bear in mind that if you want to stay for more than 90 days in the country, you may ask for an extension for your stay at the Servicio Nacional de Migraciones, dependent on the Home Office.
