    Travelling from Guinea

    Good to know before you fly

    Whether you are visiting family, working on a project or travelling for leisure, the process for Guinean applicants is the same. Many travellers from across Africa fly to Mogadishu via Nairobi, Addis Ababa or Istanbul, and the eVisa must be approved before you board the first leg.

    FAQ

    Questions from Guinean travellers

    Is a visa required for Guinean citizens visiting Somalia?

    It is. Every Guinean passport holder needs an approved Somalia eVisa before departure, whatever the purpose of the trip. EvisaSomalia can arrange it for you online.

    How quickly can I get a Somalia eVisa from Guinea?

    Standard applications take 24–72 hours after we receive complete documents. For last-minute trips, Express handling ($150) aims for about 5–6 hours during Somali working hours.

    Are there any extra charges on top of the price shown?

    No. The £66 you see covers everything, including our document checks and processing — nothing is added later.

    Do I have to be in Guinea to apply?

    No. Everything is done online, so you can apply from home, from work or while already travelling — as long as the eVisa is approved before you fly to Somalia.
