Business eVisa (Visa d'Affaires Électronique)

The Djibouti Business eVisa was launched in 2018 as a key component of the nation's strategy to enhance its appeal as a regional business and logistics hub. By digitizing the visa application, the government sought to attract foreign investors, consultants, and professionals by eliminating the time-consuming requirements of traditional visa processing. This system fills a critical gap for short-term professional engagements, allowing business travelers to quickly and reliably secure authorization to enter the country for commercial activities.

This visa is specifically for business travelers attending meetings, conferences, negotiations, or exploring investment opportunities in Djibouti. It is designed for professionals who need to conduct short-term business without the need for a long-term work permit. The applicant must have a valid passport and provide an official invitation letter from a Djiboutian company or host. Its distinctive feature is its focus on facilitating legitimate commercial interaction while maintaining strict documentation standards for corporate visitors.
