Esvatini → Cibuti: kısa süreli turist vizesi

The application asks you to upload a copy of your passport. See "Upload rules for your documents" for file types and size.

Every traveller needs their own eVisa, children included, even a child listed in a parent's passport (use the child's own details). Enter every detail exactly as it appears in the passport. There is no middle-name box, so type your middle name into the first-name box after your first name. Your eVisa is tied to the passport you applied with, so you must enter Djibouti with that same passport.

The application asks you to upload a photograph. It must be a JPG or PNG file; see "Upload rules for your documents" for the size limit.

A passport valid for at least 6 months. The FAQ doesn't say from which date the six months are counted, so check your expiry date against your travel dates with room to spare. The eVisa is open to everyone except holders of diplomatic, service or official passports and people on a courtesy visa programme.

You can only pay by credit or bank card (Visa, Mastercard or American Express); there's no other method. The card doesn't have to be in your name, but it needs 3D Secure and must be open to international payments.

The FAQ gives $12 for a transit visa (1 to 14 days) and $23 for a short-stay visa (15 to 90 days), but that answer dates from March 2021, so confirm the amount on the portal's payment page. The fee is an administrative charge: it isn't refunded if your eVisa is refused, or if you don't use it.

The eVisa is only valid if your trip is for tourism, business or transit. Work, study and other purposes need a traditional visa from a Djiboutian embassy or consulate instead.

The FAQ asks for an accommodation address (a hotel, or your host's home) and lists an invitation letter from an organisation or a host, with their contact details. The application's upload slot is labelled "Hotel booking / invitation letter", and the portal doesn't say whether a hotel guest also needs a letter, so check the form. A letter must include your host's contact details (phone, email and so on).

The FAQ says Djibouti issues no visas at the airport or any other border point, so get your eVisa before you fly. It says to apply at least 72 hours before your trip and advises a week or more, remembering that Friday and Saturday are the weekend in Djibouti. Your eVisa is usually emailed within 72 hours of you finishing your application.

Apply on Djibouti's official eVisa portal: sign up and confirm your email address, fill in your application and pay by card, then wait for approval before downloading your eVisa as a PDF. The portal works in English and French.

The application has an "express visa" option that adds a charge (the portal's text says €150 per person). Its notice about which arrival dates need express is worded unclearly, so read it on the form if you're travelling soon. The payment page also describes the visa fee as "with VAT (10%)".

A flight reservation, or a booking for whatever other transport you'll use. The application asks you to upload it as a "Ticket/Reservation". The portal doesn't say whether it wants your arrival leg, your departure leg or both.

Print your eVisa and keep it with your passport at all times while you're in Djibouti. The eVisa doesn't guarantee entry: border officers can refuse entry on rare occasions.

Kaynak: Government of Djibouti (e-Government portal, ANSIE)

The FAQ describes a transit visa for 1 to 14 days and a short-stay visa for 15 to 90 days. That answer dates from March 2021, so confirm the options on the portal; it doesn't say which type suits a trip shorter than 15 days. The eVisa is valid for one entry only, and your stay can't be longer than the period printed on it. To stay longer, the FAQ says to ask the local police for a permit to stay; overstaying can mean a fine, deportation or a ban on returning.

If your eVisa application isn't approved, the FAQ says you can contact the nearest Djiboutian embassy or consulate to apply for a traditional visa. The portal doesn't list what embassies ask for, so ask the one you'll use.

Kaynak: Djibouti Immigration Directorate (eVisa platform)

The tourism agency's guide lists these for a tourist visa applied for at an embassy: a passport valid for at least 6 months, 2 ID photos, a copy of a round-trip flight ticket and 2 completed visa application forms. Treat it with care: the same page says visas can be obtained on arrival at the airport, which the eVisa FAQ contradicts, it never mentions the eVisa, and its form link is broken. Ask the embassy you'll use what it needs.

The photograph must be JPG or PNG. Other documents can be JPG, PNG or PDF. Each file must be no larger than 250 KB. The portal says to respect these conditions, otherwise it will reject your application.
