Austria to Angola visa requirements

Austrian ordinary passport holders can visit Angola visa-free for tourism for up to 30 days per entry (maximum 90 days within a calendar year). No visa or eVisa is required in advance. Since Angola introduced its tourist visa exemption program (Presidential Decree No. 189/23, effective 9 October 2023), nationals of around 98 countries, including Austria, may enter Angola without any visa for tourism. Austrian ordinary passport holders are admitted visa-free for up to 30 days per entry, capped at a cumulative 90 days within any calendar year. The exemption is strictly for tourism (and, in practice, short business visits); work, study, residence or longer stays still require a formal visa obtained in advance. At the border, travelers must hold a passport valid for at least six months beyond the intended stay and should be prepared to show proof of onward/return travel, accommodation, and sufficient funds. A yellow fever vaccination certificate is required for entry. Angola is not in the Schengen area and the EU ETIAS scheme is irrelevant to this route. Because admission is ultimately decided by the border official, travelers should carry supporting documents. The verdict is firmly visa-free for short tourist stays for Austrian passport holders.
