Guide last updated October 3, 2026. Always verify with official sources before travel.

What you need

  • Passport valid for at least 6 months beyond the stay
  • Proof of onward or return travel
  • Proof of accommodation
  • Yellow fever vaccination certificate (required for entry into Angola regardless of visa status)
  • Proof of sufficient funds for the stay

Visa types

  • No visa required for stays up to 30 days for tourism or business visits without a local work contract
  • Longer stays, work, or study require applying for the appropriate visa or permit in advance through an Angolan mission

Entry conditions

  • Up to 30 days permitted per visit
  • Yellow fever vaccination certificate is checked on arrival and is mandatory regardless of the visa-free status
  • No formal registration needed for short stays, though keeping accommodation details on hand is advisable
  • Extensions beyond 30 days require applying at a local immigration (SME) office before the permitted stay expires

Fees & processing time

  • No visa fee, as no visa is required for stays within 30 days
  • No processing time - entry is granted directly at passport control after document checks
  • Extension fees, if needed, are set by local immigration offices and processed within a few business days

Tips for China travelers

  • Get the yellow fever vaccination at least 10 days before travel, as it is strictly checked at Angolan ports of entry
  • Carry proof of accommodation and a return ticket, since border officers may request them
  • Register with the Chinese Embassy in Luanda if staying for an extended period
  • Keep track of the 30-day limit carefully, as overstays can result in fines or entry bans on future visits
  • Confirm current entry requirements before travel, as Angola's immigration rules have changed periodically in recent years
