Poland to Guinea visa requirements

Polish ordinary passport holders need an eVisa to visit Guinea (Conakry). Apply online before travel at the official PAF Guinée portal; the tourist eVisa costs USD 80, is single-entry, allows a stay of up to 90 days, and is usually approved within about 72 hours (3 business days). Guinea is not visa-free for Polish nationals, and Poland is not on Guinea's visa-exemption list (which mainly covers ECOWAS/African states and a few treaty partners). The standard route for tourism is the electronic visa (eVisa) issued through Guinea's official government portal operated by the Direction Nationale de la Police de l'Air et des Frontières (PAF). The tourist eVisa is single-entry, permits stays of up to 90 days, and costs USD 80. After online approval, travelers receive an Entry Visa Letter and complete biometric capture (photo and fingerprints) on arrival. A passport valid for at least six months, a return/onward ticket, proof of accommodation, and a yellow fever vaccination certificate are required. Guinea is not in the Schengen area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply. Travelers should apply only via the official paf.gov.gn portal to avoid third-party markups.
