Do Finland passport holders need a visa to visit GN?
Finnish ordinary passport holders need a visa for Guinea, obtained online as an eVisa before travel. The tourist eVisa costs USD 80, allows a single entry for stays up to 90 days, and is processed in roughly 72 hours (3-4 business days). Apply only through the official government portal at paf.gov.gn. Finland is not on Guinea's visa-exemption list (which mainly covers ECOWAS states plus a handful of others such as Algeria, Egypt, Morocco, Singapore, Tunisia and Namibia), so a Finnish citizen traveling for tourism must obtain a visa in advance. Guinea has modernized its system around an electronic visa (eVisa) administered by the Police aux Frontieres (PAF) under the Ministry of Security and Civil Protection. Applicants complete an online form, upload a passport bio-page scan, return ticket and proof of yellow fever vaccination, and pay the USD 80 tourist fee. On approval an Entry Visa Letter is emailed (typically within 72 hours); the traveler prints it and presents it on arrival, where biometrics (photo and fingerprints) are captured to finalize the visa. The tourist eVisa is single entry and permits a stay not exceeding 90 days. A yellow fever vaccination certificate is mandatory for entry. Travelers should apply exclusively via the official portal (paf.gov.gn) to avoid third-party markups, and should ensure a passport valid for at least six months with at least one blank page.
