Before visiting Saint Pierre and Miquelon, there are a few things you should know. Saint Pierre and Miquelon is European; its life and culture are quite different from those of Newfoundland and Labrador. You should check to see whether you require a visa to visit Saint Pierre and Miquelon. It is a French overseas territory, however even though France is a member of the Schengen Area Agreement, Saint Pierre and Miquelon is not, hence a Schengen visa will not allow you to enter. In this instance, the French overseas territories' visa regulation applies, however fortunately for the majority of passengers, the policy is rather forgiving. It includes a rather comprehensive list of visa-exempt nationalities. For one instance, people of European Union nations and a few other states may enter Saint Pierre and Miquelon and remain eternally, while many different nationalities can stay for a duration ranging from 3 to 6 months.

Before you begin arranging your trip, you should look at the visa policies of French overseas territories and determine where your nationality falls on the list. If none of these apply to you, your sole alternative is to apply for a visa at the closest French diplomatic post. However, the procedure is not as difficult as you may believe. You should have no trouble completing the visa application process.
