Ordinary Traveller: How to use/access Timatic?

6/24/2023 8:50:23 AM

Can a passenger him/herself go through a Timatic request somewhere on web (for free) to see those requirements beforehand?

The best free frontend that works the best for me is the one from Copa Airlines

Contrary to other frontends like Emirates’ which limits a lot what data you can enter (like you can’t use it if you have anything other than a passport), the Copa Airlines one is a verbatim Timatic Web2 module from IATA and allows you to enter the full query, including transit points.

If you are willing to pay, the other way is to use ExpertFlyer

Another free gateway can be found at https://skyteam.traveldoc.aero/ this has the best interface I’ve seen in this field, allows adding connecting flights, visas, residence permits…

They seem to have a consumer portal:

2023, reverified link, the captcha isn’t so annoying anymore.

If you look at the source code of the Wikipedia Timatic template, you can see how to manually construct a URL to a Timatic page given nationality, destination country, and many other parameters.

Timatic is a paid service that airlines use. They offer a free trial, however the service is mostly meant for airlines and similar companies.

Timatic search for United Airlines is a good search, based on the Timatic database.

And there are airline sites such as https://www.united.com/web/en-US/apps/vendors/default.aspx?i=TIMATIC
which supposedly use TIMATIC

also, There are some third-party visa agency sites such as https://www.travisa.com/
