Picture needs updating - malaysia Visa on Arrival has been abolished

I would like to point out that "Visa Available On Arrival" was canceled by the Malaysian government. I say this because the picture on the wiki page shows Chinese citizens are eligible for Visa on Arrival for Malaysia. I don't know how to edit pictures and upload them, so maybe someone can update this.

My souce: http://www.malaysia.org.au/travel1.html "Please be advised that Visa on Arrival (VOA) has been completely abolished for all countries that have been given this facility." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.129.46.239 (talk) 15:32, 2 December 2011 (UTC)

Japan

Any info about Japan?--Dikteren (talk) 23:48, 4 June 2012 (UTC)

Honduras and Nicaragua

Honduras and Nicaragua don't seem to provide the visa-free access on the strength of the traveler's valid US visa anymore. At least the Timatic Web does not mention that policy anymore (unlike Costa Rica and Panama, which still have it). I assume this is because they are members of the Central America-4 Border Control Agreement, and have to harmonize their visa policy with Guatemala and El Salvador. An actual visa application from a Nicaraguan consulate now appears to refer to their visa in terms of CA-4, so the four countries have a little "Schengen" of their own now. -- Vmenkov (talk) 05:16, 9 November 2013 (UTC)

Not sure what u are referring to since as of 25 Nov 2013 I see for "National China (People's Rep.) (CN) Destination Honduras (HN)" "Visa required, except for Holders of a valid visa issued by Canada, the USA or a Schengen Member State"--Brian Dell (talk) 01:18, 26 November 2013 (UTC)

Qatar

There seems to be conflicting information about Qatar. The article currently says "Free visa on arrival". Our standard source says a visa is required, with no indication that the visa is free. However, Qatar Airways lists China among the countries for which a visa waiver, not just a "free visa", can be obtained according to a "new" regulation, dated 9 August 2017. I can't tell whether IATA is slow or Qatar Airways gets it wrong, but "Free visa on arrival" is incorrect either way. For now I'll removed the "free" part; I wouldn't mind changing it to "No visa required" if there's agreement that the press release is more reliable for Qatar's requirements than IATA's system.

Timatic has caught up and now says "Visa required, except for Nationals of China (People's Rep.) for a maximum stay of 30 days." Huon (talk) 22:14, 21 August 2017 (UTC)
