Brazil to Cameroon visa requirements

Q: Is there visa on arrival for Brazilians in Cameroon?

There is no reliable visa-on-arrival scheme for general tourists. You should obtain an eVisa in advance through www.evisacam.cm.

Q: How long does the Cameroon eVisa take?

Standard applications are processed within 72 hours of payment, and express applications within about 24 hours, though times can extend during peak periods.

Q: Is a yellow fever vaccination required?

Yes. A valid International Certificate of Vaccination showing yellow fever immunisation is mandatory; without it you can be refused boarding or entry.

Q: How long can I stay in Cameroon on a tourist eVisa?

The short-stay tourist eVisa allows stays of up to 180 days, with single or multiple entries depending on the option chosen.

Q: What is the official website to apply?

The only official portal is www.evisacam.cm. Avoid third-party sites that add extra service fees.

Brazilian ordinary passport holders need a visa to enter Cameroon, but it can be obtained online as an eVisa before travel through the official government portal evisacam.cm. There is no visa-free or visa-on-arrival channel for tourism. As of 31 May 2026, Brazil (BR) ordinary passport holders require a visa to visit Cameroon (CM) for tourism. Cameroon is not visa-free for Brazilians and does not operate a reliable visa-on-arrival scheme for general tourists, so the correct and recommended route is the electronic visa (eVisa) applied for in advance on the official portal, www.evisacam.cm. Applicants create an account, complete the online form, upload a passport bio-page, photo and supporting documents, and pay the fee online. The tourist short-stay eVisa is issued for stays of up to 180 days, with single or multiple entries depending on the option selected. Standard processing is within 72 hours of payment, with a 24-hour express option. A passport valid for at least six months beyond the intended departure date and a valid International Certificate of Vaccination showing yellow fever immunisation are mandatory; travellers without a yellow fever certificate can be denied boarding or entry. The eVisa is delivered by email and finalised as a visa sticker affixed in the passport on arrival or at a diplomatic mission. Cameroon is not part of the Schengen area, so Schengen 90/180 and ETIAS rules do not apply.

Common refusal reasons

by frequency

/01

No visa-waiver agreement

Brazil and Cameroon have no bilateral visa-exemption arrangement, so Brazilian ordinary passport holders always need a visa for tourism.

High

/02

Health entry control

Cameroon enforces mandatory yellow fever vaccination; lacking the certificate is a common reason for denied boarding or entry.

High

/03

Insufficient passport validity

Passports not valid for at least six months beyond departure are routinely rejected at application or the border.

Medium

/04

Using unofficial websites

Many third-party sites mimic the official portal and add service charges or cause delays; only evisacam.cm is official.

Medium

/05

Incomplete supporting documents

Missing accommodation proof, return ticket or funds evidence can delay or block eVisa approval.

Medium

/07 — On arrival

After you land
