How far in advance of my trip should I request the e-Visa to Benin?

You can apply for the eVisa to Benin at least 5 days before the travel date. However, to avoid any last-minute inconvenience or setback related to flights or accommodation, it is strongly advised to submit the application at least 15 days in advance.

Applying for the eVisa earlier has several key benefits:


Sufficient Processing Time:


  • Although the minimum processing time is 5 days, approval may sometimes take longer due to unforeseen factors such as a high volume of applications or need for additional information. By applying 15 days in advance, you ensure you have enough time for any unexpected delays.

Correction of Errors:

  • In case there is an error in the application or additional documents are required, having more time allows for necessary corrections without rushing. This reduces the risk of application denial or the need for last-minute modifications.

Security and Peace of Mind:

 

  • Having the eVisa approved in advance provides peace of mind, allowing you to focus on other aspects of your trip such as planning your itinerary, packing, and organizing tourist or business activities in Benin.

Flexibility for Changes in Plans:

 

  • In situations where unexpected changes in travel plans may arise, such as flight rescheduling or adjustments in accommodation dates, having the eVisa approved well in advance provides the necessary flexibility to adapt to new circumstances without additional complications.
