Visas for Congo

Visas for Congo are fairly straightforward, and it is relatively quick and easy to get visas for Congo within a day or less.

Congo visas cost £40 for 15 days, £60 for one month and £100 for three months and are usually all multiple entry visas. 

Visas are often issued immediately, or they can take up to a day to be processed. Congo does not recognise dual citizenship, so dual nationals will require a visa to enter Congo even if they are dual Congo residents.

Return airline tickets are required by all nationals visiting Congo, and other required documents include a passport which is valid for at least 6 months, ID or green card, visa application forms in duplicate, ID or passport photographs in duplicate and a copy of your airline tickets or a travel itinerary.

All travellers will need to produce a yellow fever vaccination certificate when arriving in Congo. Failing to produce this could result in you having to have the vaccination done at cost at the airport or you could be refused entry into the country.
