Overview
Short-stay visa for travelers using Ivory Coast as a transit point to reach final destination. Valid for up to 3 days, allowing brief stops during international travel. Can be obtained online if leaving airport is necessary.
The Transit e-Visa is for travelers who need to leave the international transit area of Félix-Houphouët-Boigny International Airport in Abidjan. If your connection is direct and you remain in the transit zone, no visa is required.
However, if you need to collect luggage, check in with different airlines, have an overnight layover, or leave the airport for any reason, you must apply for a transit visa.
