Guinea was the first country I visited in Africa. It was the summer of 2000, and I wanted to travel to a place where few of my American peers had ever been.
Since that time, the visa process has changed very little and is still one of the simplest visas you can get of any country in West Africa. Just make sure you have all the correct documents, and you should be good to go
Below I will tell you all you need to know about how to get a Guinea Tourist Visa.
Go to my Guinea visa page if you want information on a different type of visa for Guinea.
- Visa required for U.S. citizens before you go to Guinea: Yes, a passport, visa, international vaccination record (WHO card), and current yellow fever vaccination are required to enter Guinea.
- Visa required for non-U.S. citizens: Yes, a valid passport, visa, international vaccination record (WHO card), and current yellow fever vaccination are required to enter Guinea (except for ECOWAS member nation citizens).
If you’re inside the U.S.:
Embassy of the Republic of Guinea
If you’re outside of the U.S.: Click here.
The official list of required documents for the Guinea visa is here at the Embassy of Guinea website.
I recommend you go to your nearest Post Office and get a U.S. Postal Service Money Order. This money order will be payable to the “Embassy of Guinea”.
Submit your required materials from Step 2 and visa fee from Step 3 to the embassy or consulate you found in Step 1.
Congratulations! The Embassy of Guinea will give to you your brand new Guinean visa.
Don’t get sick! Check vaccination requirements here.
