Regional stay rules
ASEAN is not a Schengen-style common travel area and has no ASEAN-wide cumulative stay rule. The shared ASEAN-level rule is mutual visa exemption for nationals of member states holding valid national passports for social visits, with the ASEAN framework text setting visits not exceeding 14 days; individual member states may grant longer stays or impose national/bilateral conditions.
