Quick Reference
Equatorial Guinea eVisa Requirements by Nationality
Select your passport above to personalise this table.
Do I need a visa to visit Equatorial Guinea as a tourist?
▼
Yes, almost every traveler needs one. Most people get the Equatorial Guinea eVisa online before they fly, and PassportsAndVisas.com can complete the application for you. Once it's approved, print the approval letter and bring it with you. When you land, border officers issue the visa and stamp your passport. Citizens of the CEMAC countries (Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Republic of the Congo and Gabon) can enter without a visa for up to 3 months with a biometric passport. Whatever passport you hold, bring a yellow fever certificate and make sure your passport is valid for at least 6 months after you arrive.
How long does the Equatorial Guinea eVisa take, and how long can I stay?
▼
The government usually decides within about 72 hours, though it's wise to leave yourself extra time before your flight. The short-term visa is valid for 90 days. If you need to stay longer, you have to apply at a local police station in Equatorial Guinea. Overstaying means a fine when you leave and possible trouble at the border.
What should I do when I arrive in Equatorial Guinea with my eVisa?
▼
Have your printed eVisa approval letter, your passport and your yellow fever card ready. The border officer issues your actual visa on arrival. Before you leave the desk, check that the visa has been issued and your passport has been stamped. Some travelers whose passports weren't processed properly were later delayed or even threatened with detention. Keep your passport and visa on you during your stay, because police and military checkpoints are common.
Can I enter Equatorial Guinea overland from Cameroon or Gabon?
▼
Not at the moment. The authorities closed the mainland land borders on 15 December 2025 and haven't said when they'll reopen. Air and sea arrivals are still open, so plan to fly in. Once you're in the country, some places need a travel permit, including Moka, Ureka and Pico Basilé on Bioko and the islands of Corisco and Annobón. Tourist visits to Annobón are currently not advised.
Do I need a yellow fever vaccination to enter Equatorial Guinea?
▼
Yes. Every traveler must show an International Certificate of Vaccination with a yellow fever shot recorded, whatever their nationality. Get the vaccine at least 10 days before you arrive so it counts. If you can't show proof, officials may vaccinate you at the airport or refuse entry, so keep the card with your passport.
