About This Visa

Indian ordinary-passport holders need a visa for Cameroon. There is no visa on arrival. Apply before travel on the official portal https://www.evisacam.cm.

Open an account, complete the form, upload documents, and pay online. The file is only active after payment. If approved, you get an online authorisation with a QR code by email (also in your portal account). Fees are not refundable if refused. Official short-stay fees: EUR 153 normal, EUR 229 express.

Biometric enrolment (photo, fingerprints, signature) is required for every application. Where Cameroon has a mission near you, collect or print the sticker as that mission instructs; otherwise the authorisation is used to print the visa at the airport or border.
