Entry answer

- EntryAnswer
  - `status` 'visa_free' | 'visa_free_with_requirements' | 'visa_required' | 'visa_on_arrival' | 'evisa_required' | 'eta_required' | 'unclear', required: visa_free_with_requirements: no visa, but the cited source requires another formality (pre-arrival registration, digital arrival card, tourist card); see additional_requirements. A required electronic travel authorisation is eta_required.
  - `prior_application_needed` boolean, nullable

    - `description` string, required
    - `certainty` 'required' | 'check_official', required: required: the quoted sentence says it is needed. check_official: mentioned conditionally, waived for this passport, or in conflict with the status; confirm on the official page.
