About This Visa

Indian ordinary-passport holders need a visa for Cabo Verde (Cape Verde). India is not on the official visa-exemption list. From 1 January 2026, nationals on the EASE “visa before arrival” list — including India — must hold the visa before they arrive, or entry can be refused.

Apply at a Cabo Verde embassy or consular post. Official visa cost: CVE 4,898. Tourism: stay up to 90 days; use the visa within 60 days of issue.

Separately, every foreign traveller must pre-register on https://www.ease.gov.cv and pay the Airport Security Tax (TSA) when it applies — ideally up to 5 days before the trip. EASE is not a visa.

Documents Required

Consular basics

Valid passport — validity at least 3 months beyond the stay
Photograph as required
Other papers the mission asks for (purpose of trip, funds, return plans)

Also complete EASE pre-registration and pay TSA when due (international TSA: CVE 3,400 on the US mission information sheet).
