The Essentials for Your DRC eVisa Application

To successfully submit your DRC e-Visa request, the following key items are required:

• Passport Biodata Page (Digital Copy): A clear, full-colour scan of the main passport page. Ensuring your passport has at least 6 months' validity beyond your departure date helps prevent delays and gives you confidence in your application.
• Applicant's Photograph (Digital File): A recent, high-quality digital image. This photograph must adhere to standard passport specifications, which require a plain background and a clear, full-face view.
• Formal Application Letter: An application letter, personally addressed to the DGM (Direction Générale de Migration), clearly setting out your intention to visit, the specific purpose (tourism, commercial, or family) and the complete travel logistics, including proposed dates and itinerary.

DRC eVisa Processing Times and Cost Breakdown

To accommodate different needs, three processing speeds are available: Standard (11 - 13 Working Days), Rush (8 - 11 Working Days), and Super Rush (5 - 8 Working Days). If issues arise, our official support channels are ready to assist, providing reassurance throughout your application journey.

The eVisa acts solely as your digital pre-clearance, allowing you to embark and land at any designated DRC entry point (airport, seaport, or border post).

Understanding the Fee: The total visa cost is divided into two parts:

• Processing Fee: Settled online during the application for the administrative effort in generating your travel pre-approval.
• Border Fee Charge: This mandatory, nationality-dependent fee is collected upon arrival by immigration authorities. Payment must be made in DRC’s local currency to ensure the swift issuance of your final entry permit.

Before submitting your application, verify the current fee schedule on the DRC Visa Fee & Processing page to prevent any surprises and stay informed.
