DRC eVisa Guide for the Citizens of Gabon

The Democratic Republic of the Congo has introduced an online travel authorisation system for citizens of Gabon. The system allows applicants to complete and manage the process remotely.

By moving the process online, embassy visits and physical paperwork are no longer required. This allows Gabonese travellers to apply for travel to the DRC more efficiently.

  • The Total Validity Period lasts up to 90 days from the date of its issuance.
  • The DRC eVisa allows a length of stay of just 7 days per entry.

Documents Needed for Gabonese Applicants

To complete your online application, you will need to upload the following documents:

  • Important Note: For business trips, this letter must be on your host company's letterhead and addressed to the Direction Générale de Migration.

Costs and Waiting Times

The eVisa fee consists of two parts: an online service fee (paid immediately) and an entry fee (paid upon arrival in the DRC). You can choose from 3 processing speeds based on your schedule:

  • Standard Processing Time: Best for early planners.
