Austria to Equatorial Guinea visa requirements

Austrian passport holders need a visa for Equatorial Guinea and should apply online for the eVisa before travel. There is no visa-free or visa-on-arrival channel for Austrian citizens. The single-entry tourist eVisa has a USD 75 government fee, is valid for 90 days, and must be obtained via the official portal before arriving (entry is via Malabo International Airport). As an Austrian (ordinary passport) citizen, you must obtain an eVisa before traveling to Equatorial Guinea for tourism. Equatorial Guinea launched its official eVisa platform on 1 July 2023, replacing the old paper/embassy-only process for most nationalities. Austria is NOT on Equatorial Guinea's short visa-exempt list (which is limited to Barbados, Tunisia, Turkey, the UAE, and CEMAC member states using ID/biometric passport), so a visa is mandatory. The eVisa is a single-entry tourist/business visa with a USD 75 government processing fee, valid for 90 days from issuance and typically allowing a stay of up to 90 days. Official confirmations are normally issued by email within about 24-72 hours of payment, though processing can take longer, so apply at least 1-2 weeks ahead. The eVisa is valid for entry through Malabo International Airport; travelers planning to enter elsewhere (e.g. Bata) should confirm the port of entry in advance. A yellow fever vaccination certificate is mandatory, and you must carry proof of accommodation, a return ticket, travel medical insurance, and the printed eVisa to present to immigration. Be conservative: only the official portal (equatorialguinea-evisa.com) should be used to avoid third-party markups and fraud. Where sources conflict on exact stay length, default to the conditions printed on your issued eVisa.
