What is the permitted length of stay in Angola with the eVisa?

The maximum permitted length of stay in Angola with the eVisa is 30 days. This means that once you enter the country with your eVisa, you can stay in Angola for a continuous period of up to 30 days. This stay is generally sufficient for tourism, business, or other activities allowed under the eVisa regime.


For those who wish to extend their stay more than 30 days, it is possible to apply for an extension. The extension request must be made at the immigration offices in Angola before your original eVisa expires. The extension process may require additional documentation and the payment of an administrative fee.

Here are some key points to consider about the duration of stay and extensions:


  1. Initial 30-Day Period: The eVisa allows you an initial stay of 30 days from your date of entry into Angola. It is important to respect this period to avoid legal issues or penalties.

  2. Extension Request: If you need to stay in Angola for a longer period of time, you must apply for an extension of your eVisa. This procedure is carried out at the local immigration offices. It is advisable to start the extension application process well in advance to avoid any inconvenience.

  3. Documentation for the Extension: To apply for an extension, you will need your passport (valid for at least 6 months from the date of entry into the country), your current eVisa, and probably other documents justifying your extension request, such as business, personal reasons, or emergencies.

  4. Approval of the Extension: The approval of the extension request depends on the Angolan immigration authorities. Make sure to meet all the requirements and provide complete documentation to increase the chances of approval.

  5. Reentry: If you leave Angola before your eVisa expires and wish to return, you must check if your eVisa allows multiple entries or if you need to apply for a new eVisa to re-enter the country.

  6. Penalties for Overstaying: It is important not to exceed the maximum permitted stay period without an approved extension, as this can result in fines, deportation, or difficulties in obtaining visas in the future.

For more detailed and specific information about the permitted length of stay and the extension process, it is recommended to visit the official Angola immigration website or contact the nearest Angolan embassy or consulate. They can provide you with the most up-to-date guidelines and help you navigate the process effectively.
