Mexico to Central African Republic visa requirements

Mexican ordinary passport holders need a visa for the Central African Republic. The simplest route for tourism is the official online eVisa (single-entry, around USD 82), which must be obtained before travel. A yellow fever vaccination certificate is mandatory. Mexico is not on the Central African Republic's short visa-exempt list (which covers mainly neighbouring African states plus a few others such as the USA and Israel), so a Mexican ordinary passport holder must obtain a visa before arrival. The CAR operates an official electronic visa portal (evisa-centrafrique.com) that issues tourist eVisas, making this the most practical channel for Mexican travellers, who have no CAR embassy in Mexico. A single-entry tourist eVisa typically costs around USD 82 and can be issued for stays of 30, 60 or 90 days; processing usually takes about 4-7 working days. The passport must be valid at least six months with two blank pages, and an International Certificate of Vaccination showing yellow fever immunisation is required for entry. Visa on arrival exists only as a fallback for travellers coming from countries with no CAR diplomatic mission and requires advance authorisation, so it is not a reliable channel; the eVisa should be arranged before departure. Travellers should also note that most governments maintain strong travel advisories against the CAR due to security conditions.
