Unless your country is on Liberia's list of visa-exempt ECOWAS countries, you need a visa to enter Liberia. One case to check first: Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger are still named on the Liberian consulate's ECOWAS list, but all three left ECOWAS in January 2025 and we found no Liberian statement on what applies to their passports now, so they are shown this checklist rather than an exemption; ask a Liberian embassy whether the ECOWAS exemption still covers you. If there is a Liberian embassy in your country, you must apply there directly, not through the online portal. If there isn't one, the Liberia Immigration Service lets you apply online for a Visa on Arrival (visaonarrival.lis.gov.lr) and collect the visa sticker at the airport. Visa on Arrival is valid for a single visit, for tourism, business or transit, and is currently available only at Roberts International Airport in Monrovia.

For Visa on Arrival, apply at least 7 days before your flight and no more than 3 months ahead. Once approved, you must enter Liberia within 3 months, or you need to apply again. At embassies, Washington says regular processing takes 12 working days and advises applying within three weeks of your travel date; Paris says pick-up takes 5 to 10 working days or more.

After approval you get an email with a PDF that has a QR code. Print it (or show it on your phone) at the Visa on Arrival counter at Roberts International Airport in Monrovia. An officer takes your fingerprints and face scan, puts a visa sticker in your passport and sets the length of your stay, 30 or 90 days, based on how long you plan to visit.

The Liberia Immigration Service's Service Delivery Charter (dated 23 January 2025) lists a letter of application from your host, addressed to the Commissioner-General, and a photocopy of your passport's photo page for Visa on Arrival, at a fee of USD 100. The online portal's current document list and fee (USD 102.50) differ and do not mention a host letter, so treat the portal as current and ask the Liberia Immigration Service if you are unsure.

The Washington embassy says everyone entering Liberia must have a valid Certificate of Immunization (the 'Yellow Book'), and both New York and Paris list a copy of your yellow fever vaccination record among the documents to submit. The online Visa on Arrival document list does not mention it.
