Saudi Arabia to Togo visa requirements

Saudi Arabia ordinary passport holders need an e-Visa to visit Togo for tourism. There is no visa-free or visa-on-arrival channel; apply online at the official portal (voyage.gouv.tg) before travel. A yellow fever vaccination certificate is mandatory for all arrivals. Togo operates a three-tier entry system: visa-free access is limited to ECOWAS and African Union member states (plus a few bilateral exceptions such as Morocco); all other nationalities, including Saudi Arabia, require an electronic visa. Togo abolished visa-on-arrival and now directs all non-exempt travelers to its official e-Visa platform at voyage.gouv.tg. A Saudi ordinary passport holder must therefore complete the online e-Visa application before departure, upload a passport bio-page, photo, proof of accommodation and a yellow fever vaccination certificate, and pay the fee online. The tourist e-Visa fee starts at 25,000 CFA francs for a single-entry stay of up to 15 days, rising to 65,000 CFA for a 90-day multiple-entry permit. Processing takes up to five working days, so applications should be submitted at least 5-6 business days before arrival. A yellow fever vaccination certificate is mandatory for every traveler regardless of nationality, and the passport must be valid for at least six months beyond the entry date. Entry is only permitted at Lome (Tokoin) International Airport and designated land border posts. Note that some travel blogs incorrectly list Togo as visa-free for Saudi citizens; official and Timatic-based sources confirm an e-Visa is required, so travelers should not rely on those claims.
