Overview
For diplomatic passport holders on official diplomatic visits. Granted by Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Free of charge, valid for 30-90 days.
The Diplomatic Visa is granted to holders of diplomatic passports traveling to Angola on official diplomatic, service, or official visits. Administered by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Annual Visa Allocation
50 visas per year
The quota is strictly limited to 50 visas per fiscal year for principal applicants and their immediate family members. This limit is set by Section 13 of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1957. Historically, this quota is rarely exhausted due to the stringent requirement to prove 'compelling reasons' why the applicant cannot return to their home country and that their adjustment is in the national interest.
