Benin E-Visa Policy
Nationality is really the deciding factor here — it shapes everything else under the Benin E-Visa Policy. A few pointers worth knowing:
- Eligible passports can apply online for single or multiple entries, covering tourism, business, family visits, and transit.
- Some nationalities enter visa-free instead, with stays running up to 90 days depending on origin.
- Everyone, regardless of route, needs a passport with sufficient blank pages.
- Proof on arrival onward travel, accommodation, or sufficient funds — may still be requested.
- Printed copies of the approved e-visa are worth carrying in case digital access fails.
- Extensions require sign-off from Benin's immigration authorities before your stay runs out.
- Employment isn't permitted under either visa-free entry or the e-visa.
