The latest amendments to the law
governing foreign citizens’ entry into Mongolia and stay here recently came
into effect. They now specify in more detail activities that are prohibited for
foreign citizens, and seven more grounds have been added to the existing five
to deport foreigners. Also, the minimum period for which a deported person
cannot re-enter Mongolia has now been fixed according to the nature of each
violation, leaving no room for any discretion on the part of a Mongolian
official.
