Entry requirements for Micronesia
Passport validity
To enter the Federated States of Micronesia, your passport must have an ‘expiry date’ at least 120 days after the date you arrive.
You will need to clear immigration even for a domestic flight, so you will always need your passport when you fly in the FSM.
Check with your travel provider that your passport and other travel documents meet requirements. Renew your passport if you need to.
You will be denied entry if you do not have a valid travel document or try to use a passport that has been reported lost or stolen.

British passport holders normally need a visa to enter.
