Guide

Comoros runs one of the more genuinely open visa systems in Africa, a 45 day entry visa issued on arrival to every nationality, no advance application needed for most travelers. The fee is quoted at 30 euros by one source and a wider 20 to 100 US dollar range by others, so the figure clearly varies by nationality or by which entry point you use, worth confirming what applies to you specifically, but the consistent detail across sources is that it has to be paid in cash. Prince Said Ibrahim International Airport in Moroni is the country's main airport and the place this visa is actually issued and processed.

The standard documentation checklist includes a passport valid for at least 6 months with 2 blank pages, a passport photo, the visa fee in cash, US dollars recommended, a return or onward ticket, proof of accommodation, and proof of sufficient funds, a fuller list than some countries offering visa on arrival ask for, worth having all of it ready rather than assuming a light touch process.

Border crossings

  • Prince Said Ibrahim International Airport, Moroni

    The main gateway, where the 45 day visa on arrival is processed at immigration for essentially any nationality.

Transit routes

  • Bring cash, and bring a passport photo

    Both are specifically listed as required for the visa on arrival process, not things you can sort out after landing.

  • Confirm the actual fee for your nationality before you travel

    Sources disagree meaningfully, from 30 euros to a much wider dollar range, so do not assume the lowest figure quoted anywhere applies to you.

Entry point notes

  • Forty five days, not the shorter allowances common elsewhere in the region

    A genuinely generous single stay length for a visa that needs no advance application.

  • The full document checklist still applies

    Onward ticket, accommodation proof, and proof of funds are all listed requirements, not just the passport and the fee.
