is a visa and return ticket required when visiting Mongolia for US citizens? if so, where exactly do we apply for this and how much does it cost? any ideas on this would be really helpful..thanks guys!
You won't need a return ticket as proof nor a visa, though make sure your passport valid for at least six months or you'll run into trouble. By the way, you won't need a visa if you stay there less than 30 days, otherwise you'll be required to register with the police within 10 days of your arrival. Another thing to bear in mind is that traveller's cheques are accepted in Mongolia, though they can be difficult to exchange outside the capital. Good luck
