APEC Business Travel Card

Common card · No. 342475

The APEC Business Travel Card (ABTC) is a travel document issued to business travellers who are citizens of APEC member economies. Valid for five years, the card removes the need for visas when travelling to other APEC member economies, provided the holder has completed the necessary pre-clearance during the application process. In 2021, the Virtual APEC Business Travel Card (VABTC) was introduced, offering the same benefits via a mobile application. Virtual cards are intended to replace physical cards entirely, though each participating economy will determine its own timeline for doing so. As of 2023, all APEC economies except Russia accept the VABTC for entry.
