US passport holders enter Guatemala visa-free for up to 90 days. No advance application is needed. Guatemala is part of the CA-4 agreement with El Salvador, Honduras, and Nicaragua, meaning the 90-day period is shared across all four countries. Passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond the date of entry. At La Aurora International Airport (GUA) in Guatemala City, immigration stamps your passport after a quick review.
The 90-day CA-4 clock starts when you enter any of the four member countries and does not reset when crossing borders between them.
