Cameroon

Visas

Visas are required by all travellers and must be bought prior to arrival in the country. At Cameroonian embassies in neighbouring countries, visas are issued quickly for around US$60. Applications in Europe and the USA may require a confirmed flight ticket, hotel reservation and proof of funds for the trip (a copy of a recent bank statement should suffice).

Visa extensions

You can obtain visa extensions at the Ministry of Immigration in Yaoundé, where one photo plus CFA15,000 is required.

Visas for onward travel

Thirty-day visas for CAR (CFA35, 000), Chad (CFA30, 000), Congo (CFA70, 00), Equatorial Guinea (CFA37, 000), Gabon (CFA37, 000) and other nearby countries are available from embassies in Yaoundé.
