Visa Rules

Last updated: 2025-04-22 11:12:25

Tourist Visa 

Indian citizens are generally required to obtain a visa to enter Cape Verde. However, there is a provision for obtaining a visa on arrival at the international airports in Sal, Boa Vista, São Vicente, or Santiago. This is contingent upon prior online registration and payment of an airport security fee.

For U.S. citizens, a tourist visa is not required for stays of 30 days or less in Cape Verde. For longer stays, a single-entry visa (up to 90 days) or a multiple-entry visa (up to five years) are available.

Requirements:

Passport: Ensure that your passport is valid for at least six months from the date of entry and has at least two blank pages.

Visa Fee: The fee for the visa on arrival must be paid upon arrival (the exact amount may vary, so it is advisable to carry enough cash in euros or US dollars).

Travel Documents: Carry your return air tickets and hotel booking confirmation.

Proof of Funds: Be prepared to show proof of sufficient funds to cover your stay in Cape Verde.

Yellow Fever Vaccination: If traveling from or through a country with a risk of yellow fever, a valid Yellow Fever vaccination certificate is required.

Important Note:

The Airport Security Tax (TSA) is a mandatory fee for all foreign travelers entering Cape Verde, applicable to both international and domestic flights.

Disclaimers
