Argentina to The Gambia visa requirements

Argentine ordinary passport holders need a visa for The Gambia. Since The Gambia has no diplomatic mission in Argentina, the practical route is a visa on arrival at Banjul International Airport, available where no Gambian representation exists. Carry a passport valid 6+ months, a yellow fever certificate, and USD cash for fees. Argentina is not part of any Gambian visa-waiver group: it is not an African Union, Commonwealth, EU/EFTA, or ECOWAS member, nor does it have a reciprocal visa-exemption agreement with The Gambia. Consequently, Argentine citizens require a visa to enter for tourism. The Gambia maintains no embassy or consulate in Argentina, and Gambian immigration policy expressly provides that travelers from countries with no Gambian diplomatic representation may obtain an entry visa on arrival at Banjul International Airport. For this reason the realistic and most-used channel for an Argentine tourist is visa on arrival (VOA), typically priced around USD 100 for a single-entry stay of up to about 90 days, paid in cash. There is no Gambian eVisa system in force as of mid-2026, so applicants either use VOA at Banjul or obtain a sticker visa from a Gambian mission abroad (e.g., in a third country) before travel. Note: those entering without a pre-issued visa may be required to regularize their stay with the Department of Immigration in Banjul within 48 hours. Separate airport security and development fees apply on entry and exit. Travelers should confirm with their airline and the Gambia Immigration Department before departure, as VOA is granted at the discretion of immigration officers and is not guaranteed. A yellow fever vaccination certificate is required.
