What you need

  • Application Form: Completed online via the official SNEDAI portal.
  • Financial Proof: While not explicitly stated with a specific amount for e-Visa, it's prudent to have evidence of sufficient funds for your stay, such as bank statements or a letter of sponsorship (if applicable).
  • Accommodation Proof: Details of your hotel booking or the address of your host in Ivory Coast.
  • Return Ticket: Proof of onward or return travel is generally required.
  • Photograph: A recent digital passport-style photograph (usually 4x6 cm, white background).
  • Biometrics: Not required for the e-Visa application itself; however, fingerprints may be taken upon arrival at immigration.
  • Travel Health Insurance: While not always strictly enforced for e-Visa, it is highly recommended to have comprehensive travel medical insurance covering your stay in Ivory Coast.

Visa Types

  • Tourist Visa (Visa de Tourisme): Official name. Allows for tourism purposes. Validity: Typically up to 90 days. Max Stay: Up to 90 days. Entry: Single Entry. Approximate Fee: Varies based on duration, generally around $70-$100 USD for a 90-day visa.
  • Business Visa (Visa d'Affaires): For business-related activities. Official name. Validity: Up to 90 days. Max Stay: Up to 90 days. Entry: Single Entry. Approximate Fee: Similar to tourist visa, may have specific requirements for supporting documents.
  • Other categories (e.g., Study, Work) typically require applying through the Embassy of Ivory Coast in a neighboring country or in person, and are not available through the e-Visa system. Andorra citizens should contact the nearest Ivorian Embassy for these longer-term or specific purpose visas.

  • Fill out the online application form accurately, providing all required personal, passport, and travel details.

  • Express/Priority Option: Not officially advertised for e-Visa. For urgent travel, apply as early as possible and allow buffer time.

Tips for Andorra travelers

  • Apply in advance: While processing is relatively quick, it's advisable to apply at least 7-10 working days before your intended travel date to account for any unforeseen delays.
  • Common rejection reasons: Incomplete or inaccurate information on the application form, insufficient passport validity, lack of clear travel purpose, or inadequate financial proof can lead to rejection. Ensure all fields are filled precisely.
  • Direct Embassy Application: For visa types not covered by the e-Visa system (e.g., long-term study or work visas), Andorra citizens would need to contact the Embassy of Ivory Coast in France or another accessible country for in-person application procedures.
  • Travel Advisories: Check current travel advisories from your government regarding Ivory Coast before planning your trip.
  • Extension Options: Visa extensions are generally handled at the Directorate of Territorial Surveillance (DST) in Abidjan. However, for e-Visas, it is often easier and recommended to depart and re-enter with a new e-Visa if an extended stay is required, assuming you meet entry requirements.
