Djibouti Tourist e-Visa
The Djibouti eVisa is designed for travelers visiting Djibouti for tourism or short-term business. It can be used at Ambouli International Airport and land border checkpoints.
If you’re applying for tourism or business purposes, you will be issued a 90-day visa. If your purpose of travel is transit, you’ll be granted a 14-day visa. Both are single-entry permits and valid for 90 days from the date of issue.
To apply for the Djibouti eVisa, you’ll need:
- A passport valid for at least 6 months after your arrival date in the country
- A recent passport photo with a white background
- Proof of accommodation (e.g., a hotel booking)
- Proof of return or onward travel (e.g., flight tickets)
- An invitation letter (from your host or inviting organization with their contacts)
