So my country is on the visa on arrival list for Venezuela. Did you get a visa on arrival at the border?

[@TwonieProject]

No; as Canadians we had to get a visa ahead of time, but the process was easy and we did it in Cucuta a few days before going to Venezuela.

[@Dannys-f6l]

Thanks for the information. And how did you feel in Venezuela safety wise? Did the checkposts bother you a lot (bribes and things like that) or was it all fine?

[@TwonieProject]

Felt safe, no issues. No checkpoints, no bribes.

Is it possible to cross to Venezuela without a visa from cucuta border crossing?? My country is not listed as a visa free entry to Venezuela

[@TwonieProject]

As far as I know, anyone can cross at Cucuta. If you require a visa ahead of time, the consulate in Cucuta is an easy place to get it, but there are other Venezuelan consulates where you could go. It is a controlled border, so.if you require a visa, don't try crossing here without one!
