Comment #202/09/10 04:58Australia living in La Paloma | "Overstaying..."
I have to admit I have left Uruguay twice having overstayed the 90 days (yes I know, very slack - can only be attributed to the laid back beach lifestyle!!). Each time I had to go to the Immigration office at the airport and pay the fee. The first time it was about 350 pesos and the second time it was about 560 pesos. I never had any problems doing it, either time, however it is not something that I am recommending (bit of a disclaimer note there!) - just commenting on my own experiences! |
| "Things are changing (slowly!) "
I have an American friend who has lived in Uruguay for 4 years, he owns property, owns and runs a business and employs Uruguayans and he doesn't have a cedula...he did all this on a tourist visa (seriously!).He rarely leaves the country (once a year if at all) and so obviously without a cedula he is regularly overstaying his allowed time by many many months. Every time he has left he has never had any trouble, just paid a fee in the airport. For the moment it doesn't seem to be a big deal, but things are (very slowly!) changing at immigration. Every year the number of immigrants and tourists in Uruguay is increasing and they are gradually getting more picky about things. So as Tamara said, I am NOT recommending this, but at this current time overstaying your tourist visa doesn't seem to be a big deal. |
| "An example..."
There is an interesting comment on this blog about how things changed literally overnight in Taiwan regarding tourist visas:"When I was in Taipei in the early '90s, the Taiwan govt. was notoriously lax about foreigners living and working in Taiwan on the 90 day renewable visa....Then one day, it all changed. The Taiwan govt. started running sting operations in bars frequented by foreigners, they wouldn't let people back in the country that were taking the Hong Kong run for visa renewal, and a friend of mine from France was actually escorted to her apartment by immigration officials, told to pack a bag, and was driven to the airport and sent out of the country. After about 6 months, it was back to business as usual, but it just goes to show that you never know when a country will all of a sudden decide to start enforcing its immigration laws." |
| "Reality Check"
Come on people get real. Don't worry about what the fine might be. Don't worry about whether the enforcement is lax or aggressive. Respect the laws of where you are living or plan to live.It is so simple to get an extension of your visa, or leave the country and return that there is simply no excuse for overstaying. I can't believe these people in Argentina that are complaining about the Government not following its own rules and then blatantly disrespect the rules themselves... because it was only a small fine! When you enter Uruguay and get a stamp good for 90 days, it's just that. 90 days. You know far enough in advance to plan your trip so as to respect that! Why do you think Uruguayan need a visa to enter the USA now? Simple: Too many Uruguayans overstayed their alloted time when a visa wasn't required, so the USA clamped down. You might find the fine for overstaying your entry visa to be small, but you can be sure that statistically you are tracked and every time you over stay it will be a black mark against all American's (or whatever passport you hold). |
| ""Reality Check""
I couldn't agree with you more Linda. It's wrong to ignore the laws even when their enforcement may be lax. Look at what just happened in Haiti to those people who tried to get minors out of that country without following proper procedure? Whether or not their intentions were good, they were wrong to ignore the local laws. And they're now paying a heavy price for their mistake. Uruguay just slaps a fine on people who overstay their entry visas, but as Elaine pointed out, as the number of tourists and immigrants grow, the enforcement of the law may become stricter. Then someone who has been fined a few times may then find themselves in a situation they don't want to be in... |
