法国(France) 前往 刚果(金)(Congo (Dem. Rep.)) 签证要求

French passport holders need a visa for the Democratic Republic of Congo. The standard route for a short tourist stay is the online eVisa/VAP via the official portal evisa.gouv.cd, or a tourist visa from the DRC Embassy in Paris. France is not on the DRC visa-exemption list. A French ordinary passport holder is not exempt from visas for the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC, Kinshasa). Both the French government (France-Visas and France Diplomatie) and the DRC's own visa policy confirm that French nationals are subject to a visa requirement and France does not appear on any DRC exemption list (which covers only a few neighbouring African states). For a short tourist visit the two practical channels are: (1) the official online portal evisa.gouv.cd, which issues an electronic Visa Autorisation Préalable / eVisa, typically processed within around 72 hours and usable at air, land and sea entry points; and (2) a traditional tourist visa obtained from the DRC Embassy in Paris (single-entry one-month visa around USD 100). A mandatory VAP/border fee (commonly cited at USD 90) is collected on the electronic-visa channel, and total online costs reported by applicants range widely depending on visa length and service. A valid passport with at least 6 months validity and an International Certificate of Vaccination showing yellow fever vaccination are required; proof of onward/return travel is expected. Fees are quoted in US dollars. Because figures and channel details vary between sources and the system has been changing (a generalised eVisa rollout was advanced in 2025), travelers should confirm the current fee and process directly on evisa.gouv.cd or with the DRC Embassy in Paris before booking.
