Chile Tourist visa fee

The fee for a tourist visa only applies to foreigners who are required to formally apply for a tourist visa before coming to Chile. All foreigners who are citizens of countries with visa-free agreements with Chile are not required to pay any tourist visa fees, except if they need to renew their tourist visa for an extra 90 days.

The table below lists the Chile tourist visa cost for countries without a visa-on-arrival agreement with Chile. If your country is not on the list, it means it has a visa-free agreement in Chile, and you do not need to apply for a visa in advance.

Chile Work permit as a tourist fees

The work permit as a tourist, as explained in the Chile tourist visa section, is a specific work permit allowing you to work for a short period in Chile legally.

The work permit as a tourist is expensive, as it costs 150% of the cost of the work visa. You pay 1.5 times the price of a temporary visa (up to two years) for a 3-month work permit. It can be costly for some citizenships, such as Australia, for which the 2-year work visa comes with a USD 2890 visa fee. Multiply that by 1.5. It may not be worth it.

See below the fee indicated for your country in the "work visa" column, and multiply by 1.5

Chile Permanent Residency fees

Unlike temporary visas, the cost of permanent residency in Chile is the same for all foreigners.

The Chile permanent residency fee is 105,713 Chilean pesos, except for the two following categories, who do not have to pay anything:

foreigners with a Chilean spouse
foreigners below 18 years old

Chile Citizenship fee

The Chilean citizenship fee is 29,436 Chilean pesos.

There is a reduced price ($5.887) for the following categories:

foreigners with a Chilean spouse
foreigner widow of a Chilean citizen
foreigners with a Chilean son/daughter
