Fees and Timescales for Cape Verdean Citizens

The Democratic Republic of the Congo understands that not all trips are planned long in advance, so they offer 3 different processing speeds for handling your eVisa application:

  • Standard Processing: This is the most budget-friendly choice, taking an estimated 11 - 13 Working Days.
  • Rush Processing: A quicker option if you need your visa sooner, taking just 8 - 11 Working Days.

The total cost of your eVisa is split into 2 separate payments:

  1. Online Application Charge: You pay this fee when you submit your application. It covers the administrative tasks required to verify and approve your initial travel permission.
  2. Immigration Fee at the Border: This is a compulsory fee you pay to DRC immigration officers upon arrival. The exact amount varies by nationality. You must pay this charge in the local currency to be given your final entry stamp.
