Angola Visa for Pakistan Citizens 2026

Visa Required

Pakistani citizens need a visa for Angola, obtainable through Angola's online SIME e-visa/visa-on-arrival system or the nearest embassy, since Angola has no diplomatic mission in Pakistan; fees run around USD 120 for a short-stay visa.

What you need

  • Passport valid for at least 6 months beyond your planned entry date
  • Completed Angolan visa application (via the SIME online portal where available, or paper form at the nearest embassy)
  • Invitation letter from a host or company in Angola, generally required for most categories
  • Two passport-size photos, white background
  • Proof of accommodation and round-trip flight itinerary
  • Proof of sufficient funds for the stay
  • Yellow fever vaccination certificate is mandatory for entry into Angola
  • Travel health insurance covering the stay is recommended

Visa types

  • Short-stay/tourist visa (via SIME system or embassy): single entry, valid for a stay of up to 30 days, fee approx. USD 120
  • Business visa: multiple entry, requires a company invitation, fee approx. USD 140-160
  • Visa on arrival (available to some nationalities under the SIME simplified process): subject to prior online pre-registration in most cases

How to apply

  • Check whether Angola's SIME online pre-visa system currently accepts applications from Pakistani passport holders; if so, register and submit documents through the portal
  • If the online route is not available, apply through the nearest Angolan embassy or consulate (commonly in the UAE or India, since Angola has no mission in Pakistan)
  • Submit your invitation letter, passport, photos, yellow fever certificate, and financial proof
  • Pay the visa fee as instructed by the embassy or online portal
  • Processing typically takes 5-10 business days once all documents are accepted
  • Confirm your port of entry in advance, as some visa types are tied to a specific airport or border crossing

Fees & processing time

  • Visa fee: approx. USD 120 for a short-stay/tourist visa
  • No standard VFS/BLS service fee if applying directly through SIME or the embassy; courier costs may apply given the lack of a Pakistan mission
  • Total estimated cost: USD 120-160 including any courier or handling charges
  • Standard processing time: 5-10 business days
  • No official express service is guaranteed; urgent cases should contact the embassy or SIME support directly

Tips for Pakistan travelers

  • Start the process at least 3-4 weeks ahead, allowing extra time since Angola has no embassy in Pakistan
  • Common rejection reasons: missing yellow fever certificate, weak invitation letter, or incomplete financial proof
  • Keep your yellow fever certificate easily accessible, as it is checked both during visa processing and again on arrival
  • Confirm the latest procedure directly with the nearest Angolan mission before applying, since online vs. embassy processes can change
  • Visa extensions inside Angola are handled through the Immigration and Foreigners Service (SME) and should be requested well before the visa expires
