Visa Overview

E-Visa

  • Equatorial Guinea offers an official e-Visa system for eligible foreign nationals, including Indian passport holders in most cases. The e-Visa allows travelers to apply online before travel for purposes such as tourism, business, family visits, and short stays, without visiting an embassy physically.
  • Applicants must complete an online application, upload required documents, and pay the visa fee digitally. Once approved, they receive an electronic visa authorization (e-Visa approval letter in PDF format), which must be printed and carried during travel.
  • The e-Visa is generally issued as a short-stay entry permit, and the validity, number of entries, and duration of stay are determined by Equatorial Guinea immigration authorities based on the applicant’s profile and purpose of visit. Entry is mainly through Malabo International Airport or Bata Airport.
  • Even with an approved e-Visa, final entry is not guaranteed, as immigration officers have the authority to approve or refuse entry at arrival after verification of documents.
