Island to replace visa stickers with digital immigration status

The Isle of Man Immigration Service will begin introducing digital immigration products from July.

People granted Entry Clearance will no longer be issued with a sticker or label, known as a visa vignette, in their passport.

From Wednesday, July 1, their immigration status will instead be recorded digitally and verified by airlines, ferry operators and border officials.

Applicants will receive a letter confirming their permission details, with the move forming part of the Island's wider transition towards eVisas.
