You likely don't need a visa

You don't need a visa to visit São Tomé and Príncipe as a tourist. Under a bilateral cooperation agreement, São Tomé and Príncipe's Migration and Border Service (SMF) lists your nationality as visa-exempt for up to 90 days. You still need a passport valid for at least three months beyond your entry date, and immigration officials often also expect proof of a return ticket and enough funds for your stay. If you want to stay longer than this exemption allows, São Tomé and Príncipe's Migration and Border Service (SMF) says an extension up to 90 days is possible if you meet immigration requirements once you're there, otherwise, apply for a visa through eVisaST instead.

Every report is personal: a document check is built from one person's own answers and documents, so two people on this route can get different results. Run your own check rather than relying on a friend's or relative's; each person is responsible for their own application.
