What you need

  • Passport valid for at least 6 months from date of entry
  • Passport-style photo (some entry points request one, others do not)
  • Completed arrival card with travel and accommodation details
  • Proof of onward/return ticket
  • Proof of accommodation (hotel booking or host address)
  • Proof of sufficient funds for the stay
  • Biometrics: fingerprints/photo may be taken on arrival by immigration
  • Travel health insurance: recommended

Visa types

  • Short-stay visa on arrival: single entry, max stay 45 days, fee approx. USD 30 for up to 15 days or USD 50 for up to 45 days
  • Business visa on arrival: similar structure to the tourist visa, requires supporting business documentation, comparable fee
  • Multiple-entry visas are not typically issued on arrival and must be arranged in advance through a Comorian consulate if needed

Visa on arrival

  • Available at Prince Said Ibrahim International Airport in Moroni
  • Steps: complete the arrival form, present passport and payment (USD or EUR cash) at the immigration counter before passport control
  • Processing is quick, typically 10-15 minutes per traveler
  • No pre-approval or online application is required for most short tourist stays, though confirming current requirements before travel is recommended since policies can change with little notice

Fees & processing time

  • Visa on arrival fee: approx. USD 30 (up to 15 days) or USD 50 (up to 45 days), paid in cash on arrival
  • No separate service or agency fee - the visa is issued directly by immigration
  • Processing: same-day, typically within 15 minutes of arrival at the airport counter
  • Extensions beyond 45 days must be requested at the immigration office in Moroni before the visa expires

Tips for Kenya travelers

  • Carry sufficient small-denomination USD or EUR cash, since card payment is often unavailable at the airport visa counter
  • Confirm the current visa-on-arrival policy shortly before travel, as Comoros' entry rules have changed periodically in recent years
  • Have proof of accommodation and a return ticket printed and ready, as immigration officers may ask to see them
  • Since Comoros has no embassy in Kenya, visa-on-arrival is the standard and most practical route for Kenyan travelers
  • Yellow fever vaccination proof may be requested if arriving from or via a country with risk of transmission - carry your certificate to avoid delays
