Italy to Angola visa requirements

Italian (Italy) ordinary passport holders do NOT need a visa for tourism in Angola. They may enter visa-free for up to 30 days per entry, capped at 90 days total per calendar year, under Angola's Presidential Decree 189/23 (in force since late 2023). Since the Angolan Presidential Decree 189/23 took effect in late September/October 2023, Angola has waived tourist visas for nationals of all European Union member states, including Italy. As of 2026-06-02, an Italian ordinary passport holder traveling to Angola for tourism or a short visit does not need any visa, eVisa, or visa-on-arrival. The exemption permits stays of up to 30 days per entry, with a cumulative limit of 90 days within a calendar year, and applies to tourism purposes only. The waiver does not remove standard border formalities: travelers must hold a passport valid for at least six months, show a confirmed return/onward ticket, and may be asked for proof of accommodation and an international vaccination certificate (yellow fever). Travelers intending to work, study, seek medical treatment, or reside in Angola cannot use this exemption and must obtain the appropriate visa from an Angolan diplomatic mission before travel. Angola is not part of the Schengen area, so Schengen 90/180 and ETIAS rules do not apply to this route. For stays beyond 30 days for tourism, or for non-tourism purposes, an Angola eVisa or consular visa is required.
