Finland to Togo visa requirements

Finnish citizens need a visa to enter Togo. There is no visa-free entry and visa on arrival has been discontinued, so you must obtain an eVisa online via the official platform (voyage.gouv.tg) before travel. A yellow fever vaccination certificate is also mandatory. A Finland ordinary passport holder traveling to Togo for tourism requires a visa. Togo is not in the Schengen area and offers no visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to Finnish nationals. Since the rollout and consolidation of the national travel platform at voyage.gouv.tg, Togo no longer issues visas on arrival; all travelers must apply for an electronic visa (eVisa) online beforehand. The tourist eVisa is the correct category for a short visit. A single-entry 1-15 day tourist eVisa costs 25,000 CFA francs (XOF), with longer and multiple-entry options available up to 90 days. Processing takes up to 5 working days, and applications should be submitted at least 6 working days before arrival to avoid late-submission surcharges (effective since 31 December 2023). The passport must be valid for at least 6 months and have blank pages. A yellow fever vaccination certificate is required for all travelers. In addition, every visitor must complete the online entry/exit immigration declaration on voyage.gouv.tg no later than 24 hours before arrival, regardless of visa status.
