南非(South Africa) 前往 布隆迪(Burundi) 签证要求

South African ordinary passport holders need a visa for Burundi. The recommended option is the official eVisa applied for online before travel; a visa on arrival is also available at Bujumbura's Melchior Ndadaye International Airport and land borders. A 1-month single-entry tourist visa costs about USD 90. A South Africa (ZA) ordinary passport holder traveling to Burundi (BI) for tourism requires a visa. Burundi grants visa-free entry only to nationals of the East African Community (EAC) and the Economic Community of the Great Lakes Countries (CEPGL); South Africa belongs to neither, so it is not on Burundi's visa-exemption list. South African travelers have two practical channels: (1) the official eVisa applied for online through the General Commissariat for Migration portal at migration.gov.bi, and (2) a visa on arrival obtained at Melchior Ndadaye International Airport in Bujumbura or at land border posts. Both deliver a short-stay tourist visa valid for up to one month. The eVisa is the recommended route because it confirms entry eligibility before boarding, fixes the fee in advance, and avoids the cash-only payment requirement at the airport (no landside ATMs). The single-entry one-month visa is USD 90; a multiple-entry one-month visa is also USD 90 and is renewable twice. A 3-day transit visa costs USD 40. Travelers should hold a passport valid at least six months with blank pages, proof of onward/return travel and accommodation, and a yellow fever vaccination certificate, which is required for entry to Burundi.
