Frequently asked questions about the Cameroon eVisa

Do I need a Cameroon eVisa?

Unless you are from a visa-exempt country (mostly neighboring CEMAC nations), you must have a valid eVisa.

If you are only transiting for less than 5 days, you may apply for a Transit eVisa, which can sometimes be cheaper.

What is the mandatory Yellow Fever requirement?

Cameroon strictly requires all incoming travelers to provide proof of vaccination against Yellow Fever. You must upload a scan of your International Certificate of Vaccination (Yellow Book) during the application process and carry the original with you to show health officials upon arrival.

How will I receive the Cameroon eVisa?

You will receive a PDF registration receipt via email. This is not the final visa sticker, but the official authorization that allows you to board your flight.

Upon arrival at the airport in Cameroon, you will head to the eVisa counter to provide your fingerprints and receive the physical visa sticker in your passport.

How long can I stay in Cameroon with an eVisa?

An eVisa typically allows a stay of up to 90 days.

How long does Cameroon eVisa processing take?

Most applications are processed within 3 to 10 days. We recommend applying well in advance of your travel date. With iVisa, you can get the eVisa in as little as 4 days.

Do children/minors need a Cameroon eVisa?

Yes. Every traveler must have their own visa. For minors, you may need to upload additional documents such as a birth certificate.

You can easily apply together as a group or family through iVisa, by clicking “Add another person” during the application process.

What happens if my Cameroon eVisa application is denied?

Common reasons involve not having a Yellow Fever certificate. iVisa's experts review your application to ensure your documentation is complete, before sending it off to the government.

Can I get a visa on arrival without an eVisa?

No. Cameroon has moved away from traditional "on-arrival" applications without prior registration. You must complete the online eVisa process and have your digital clearance receipt before you board your flight. Attempting to arrive without it may result in being denied entry or deported.

Can I extend my Cameroon eVisa?

Yes, you can extend your stay in Cameroon, but the process must be done in person at the DGSN Headquarters in Yaoundé, once you are already in the country. You must do this at least 15 days before the validity expires. It is not possible to extend the eVisa through the online portal once it has been issued.
