On self-transfer journeys, your flights are booked on separate tickets. This means that at your connecting airport, you will usually need to:

• Exit the arrivals area

• Pass immigration and customs

• Collect your baggage (if you have checked bags)

• Check in again for your next flight

• Some countries might require transit visas even if you stay within the airport

Because you are officially entering the country during your connection, a transit visa or entry visa may be required, even if you are only staying for a short time and not leaving the airport area.

Who needs a visa?

Whether you need a visa depends on:

• Your nationality

• The country you are connecting through

• Local immigration rules at the transit airport

Visa requirements can vary and may change, so they are not determined by Dohop or the airline.

What should I do?

Before travelling, make sure to:

• Check the official government or immigration website of the country you are transiting through

• Contact the local embassy or consulate if you are unsure

• Always travel with passport

• Verify your validity of you travel documents

It is the traveller’s responsibility to ensure they have the correct visas and travel documents for their entire journey.

Checking this in advance helps avoid delays, denied boarding, or entry issues during your connection.
