Steps
Create a free account at zylalabs.com (email, Google, GitHub, or Facebook) — no sales call is required.
On the Visa Checker API listing, activate a plan; the free trial allows a limited number of requests over a short trial period.
Copy the API Access Key shown at the top of the documentation page once your subscription is active.
Call the countries-available endpoint on the Visa Checker API to confirm which countries are supported.
Call the requirements-information endpoint with a nationality query parameter (e.g., nationality=Argentina), sending header Authorization: Bearer <your access key>.
Parse the response, which is keyed by nationality with arrays such as Visa Required, Visa on Arrival, eVisa, and Visa Free destinations.
Known gotchas
Auth uses a plain Authorization: Bearer header, not the X-RapidAPI-Key pattern common on similar marketplaces — using the wrong header returns a 401 with little explanation.
There's no permanent free tier; paid plans meter both monthly request volume and requests-per-minute, and usage is reported back via rate-limit response headers.
This is a third-party aggregator, not an IATA/Timatic official source — IATA's own Timatic visa-requirements product is enterprise-sales-gated with no public self-serve API, so treat this data as a convenience reference rather than an authoritative airline-grade source.
