Visa Requirements in Google Sheets & Excel

What this pulls

Visa Requirements tells you what a passport holder needs to enter another country: no visa, an electronic travel authorization, an eVisa, a visa on arrival, a visa arranged in advance, or entry restricted. It also returns the allowed stay in days where one is set. Paid plans can list every destination for one passport.

It's one of 250+ live sources you reach with a single =VERVE() function — served from APIVerve's production data engine, billed at 5 credits per resolved cell, and refreshed on whatever cadence you set. No API keys to wrangle, no scripts, no exports.

Ways to use it

One value per row

Fill =VERVE("visarequirements", "US", "JP", "field", "passportName") down a column and Visa Requirements returns a result for every row — a batch of live values in a single drag, no code.

Enrich data in place

Add Visa Requirements beside a table you already have to append its output right where your data lives, then sort, filter, or chart on it.

Stays fresh on its own

Set the sheet to refresh on a schedule and the visa requirements values keep themselves current without anyone re-typing.

Use it in your sheet

The same function works in both apps — install once, sign in with your key, and type it into any cell.

Google SheetsAdd-on

Install from the Workspace Marketplace, then drop the formula into a cell. Autocomplete suggests the source and its fields.

=VERVE("visarequirements", "US", "JP", "field", "passportName")

Microsoft ExcelAdd-in

Same source, same arguments, same key — in Excel on desktop, the web, or mobile. Excel namespaces it as VERVE.CALL. Drag to fill a whole column.

=VERVE.CALL("visarequirements", "US", "JP", "field", "passportName")

Fields you can pull

Add a field name as the last argument to land just that value in the cell.

Visa Requirements, answered

Everything you need to wire it into a sheet.

How do I pull Visa Requirements into Google Sheets?

Install the VerveSheets add-on, sign in once with your key, and type =VERVE("visarequirements", "US", "JP", "field", "passportName") into any cell. The "field" argument names the value you want back, so the cell resolves to a single number or string you can chart, sort, or feed into another formula.

What data can I pull from Visa Requirements?

Visa Requirements returns passportName, destinationName, requirement, requirementLabel and visaRequiredInAdvance, plus 5 more — name any one of them as the "field" argument and that value lands in the cell. Leave the field out and the whole record spills into a two-column table instead.

Can I fill a whole column of Visa Requirements at once?

Yes. Put your passport values down a column and point the formula at the range — A2:A50 instead of A2 — and one call returns a value for every row. Dragging the formula down works too, but the range form is a single billed call per column rather than one per cell.

How many credits does each Visa Requirements cell cost?

Each resolved cell costs 5 credits. A cell only re-bills when it actually refreshes, so a sheet you aren't touching doesn't keep charging.

Does Visa Requirements work in Excel as well as Google Sheets?

Yes — same arguments, same key, same fields. Excel namespaces custom functions, so the call is =VERVE.CALL() there and =VERVE() in Google Sheets; nothing else about it changes.
