Angola e Visa For Tourism

The tourism e-visa is an online visa for tourists visiting Angola socially. This visa has been issued to tourists and can be used for several purposes. You can use it to tour the country, spend your holidays, visit family and friends, or attend a social event like sporting, religious, or cultural events. Holders of tourist e-visas can stay in the country for up to 30 days but are entitled to a further 30-day extension.

The visa is only valid for two months from the issue date and is a single-entry travel document. To get it, you must have a passport with a minimum Validity of 9 months. You must also possess proof of funds and accommodation documents to show the authorities that you will not be a social liability during your time in the country.

Angola e Visa For Business

The Angolan e visa for business is for foreigners with business interests or activities in Angola. This e-visa is only for short stays of 30 days with additional 30 days extension if the visitor needs more time to wrap up their activities in the country. Business e-visa applications are only approved for those who provide adequate information about their activities through a cover letter or/and an invitation letter issued by their Angolan host. The letter should explain in detail the purpose of the trip and how long it will take.

Their return flight ticket, proof of sufficiency, and accommodation arrangements should also be planned for before their trip. Do note that Angolan business e-visas and work visas are different. While work visas qualify the holder for a work permit and are solely for foreign expatriates, an e-visa is issued as a short-term visa for non-work-related activities. Furthermore, persons who visit the country with this document are not allowed to work and get direct payment for their services.

Angola Visa Policy

Persons visiting Angola must apply for a visa unless they are from one of the visa-exempted countries. Visa applications can be submitted at an Angolan diplomatic mission or online. The country is part of different sub-regional bodies, including being a member of the African Union, which influences their visa policy. There is a special tourist visa which is only valid for 30 days and must be used within two months after it is issued. However, it can also be extended by 30 more days if the situation demands it.

Also important to note is that the visa policy mandates visitors to have passports valid for at least 9 months from the day the visitor arrives in the country, and it must also have two empty pages for visa stamps. As for transit visitors, they only need transit visas if they intend to leave the airport at any point while waiting for their next flight.

The government is also working on a special visa called the KAZA UniVisa program, allowing visitors to travel freely between Angola, Botswana, Zambia, Namibia, and Zimbabwe.

Visa Free Countries

Angola has a short list of countries whose citizens can stay in the country without a visa for a limited time. This list is always dynamic but always changing as more countries are added or removed according to the diplomatic climate of the time. Citizens of Namibia are the only foreigners who can enter and live in Angola indefinitely without needing visas; others can do the same but are limited to 30 days per visit and only three entries per year.

There is also a special category for diplomatic visitors of selected countries who can visit Angola without visas.

Special e-Visa Program

In 2018, the Angolan government launched an electronic visa program for short visits of 30 days. The application process is simplified so applicants can easily apply and get their visas on time. This program is open to visitors from 61 countries, so check if you're on the list.

Eligible applicants must apply to the Migration and Foreign Services Department. 

After the pre-visa is issued, they must travel to Angola with a printed copy and their passports. On arrival, the printed copy will be exchanged for a visa at the port of entry through any designated entry port. The application requires a fee that must be paid before the application can be submitted. The authorities also expect applicants to provide proof of funds, accommodation, and a return flight ticket to their base. They must also provide an international vaccination certificate to prove they are without communicable infections like Covid.

Still, on the documentation, applicants must have a scanned passport photograph with white background and an active email address. As for the application fee, this can be paid online using a credit or debit card.

Visitors with e-visas are only allowed to enter Angola through the Lubango and Quatro de Fevereiro Airport in Luanda. Other access routes are the land borders with the Republic of Congo, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and the border with Namibia. This visa is open to citizens of more than 61 countries though the list will likely increase as more countries are added.

Key Details About The Angola Electronic Visa

Before you submit your application or even obtain the visa, there are important details you should know, and we reveal them below.

Apply To The Migration and Foreigner Services: This application is submitted to the Angolan Migration and Foreigner Services, the body responsible for processing e-visas. This can only be done using online application platforms like VisaHQ that serve as transmission links to get your application across to the authorities. For conventional visas, apply directly to the embassy or consulate.

Not For Work or Residency: This online visa is not for work or residency, so you are not allowed to engage in any employment, trade, or paid activity. It is only for short visits, not qualifying you for a resident or work permit. For work and permanent residency, you will need a work and residency visa, respectively.

Pre-Visa: The online visa will be issued through your email address, but that is not the real visa. It is only a pre-visa, which allows you to travel to Angola. When you get to Angola, the pre-visa you printed from your email should be exchanged with a paper visa, which you must carry with you wherever you go to prove that you have valid papers and are not living in the country illegally.

Same Passport: It is important to travel to Angola with the same passport you used for the application. 

Please do so to avoid entry denial. Your passport must be valid for at least 9 months and have at least 2 blank pages. E-visas are linked to the passports they are registered with, so if the passport you present at the border has a different number than the one on your e-visa, you will be allowed into the country. If your passport doesn't meet the requirements, consider getting a new one first to avoid rejections.

For Minors: If you are traveling with a minor, you ought to show proof that you are their legal guardian or parent. Parents must present birth certificates to show that they are indeed related to the minor by blood. In contrast, guardians must show notarized proof of consent signed by the minor's parent authorizing them to travel with the child. Also, note that minors must have their own visas.

Approved Routes: Not all routes are open to e-visa holders. Make sure you enter the country through the airports or approved land border routes. There are no seaport routes for such visitors.
