United Arab Emirates to Togo visa requirements

UAE ordinary passport holders need an e-visa to visit Togo. It must be obtained online via the official Togo Voyage platform (voyage.gouv.tg) before travel; visa on arrival is no longer issued. Carry a yellow fever vaccination certificate for entry. A United Arab Emirates ordinary passport holder traveling to Togo for tourism requires an electronic visa (e-visa). Togo Voyage lists Emirats Arabes Unis among countries whose nationals are subject to a visa, and Togo's FAQ says visas are no longer issued on arrival. The applicant creates an account, completes the immigration and visa forms, uploads the required tourist-visa documents, and pays online by card or mobile money. Official tourist visa tiers are 25,000 FCFA for 1-15 days single entry, 35,000 FCFA for 1-15 days multiple entry, 45,000 FCFA for 16-30 days multiple entry, and 65,000 FCFA for 31-90 days multiple entry. Standard processing is up to five working days; Togo Voyage encourages applying at least six working days before arrival, while the FAQ advises at least seven working days before the flight. The passport scan should cover the first three pages, and passport validity must exceed the requested visa validity by three months. A valid yellow fever vaccination certificate is required for entry and should be carried for presentation on arrival. Verdict: visa-required via e-visa.

High
/04
Applying too late
