This page explains how we put our guides together, so you can decide how much to trust them.
How we research
Rules, fees and timings come from official sources first: immigration and tourism departments, airport and railway operators, and government notices. When we use news reports or other travellers’ accounts, we say so. Every guide ends with the month its facts were last checked.
How we write
We use software tools, including AI writing assistants, to help with research and drafting. A person on our team checks every fact, figure and link before anything is published, and edits the piece for accuracy and usefulness. We don’t publish pages just to fill a site.
Keeping guides current
Visa rules, fees and transport change often. We re-check our main guides before each travel season and change the “last checked” date only when we have actually reviewed the facts.
Money and independence
We don’t accept payment for positive coverage. If a page ever includes affiliate links or sponsored content, it will say so clearly at the top. See our disclaimer.
