Discover visa requirements for your trip
Togolese nationals must obtain a consular visa before travelling to Afghanistan; there is no exemption and no visa on arrival.
A Togolese traveller leaving Lomé for Afghanistan must arrange a tourist visa through an Afghan mission before departure. Afghanistan keeps no embassy in Togo, so the application is made to the Afghan embassy or consulate accredited to the West-African region. The Togolese passport should remain valid for at least six months after the planned entry.
Do you need a visa?
Yes. Togolese citizens are subject to a visa requirement for Afghanistan, with no waiver and no issuance at the border. The tourist visa must be obtained before travel. No entry to the territory is possible without it.
How and where to apply
Lodge the application at the Afghan mission responsible for Togo, often located outside the country. Write to the post first to confirm the document list and the filing channel, as some direct applicants to an official online portal. The precise conditions still need to be checked with the official source.
Documents and fees
Bring a passport valid for six months, recent photos, the completed form and, depending on the case, proof of accommodation or an invitation. The fee applicable to Togolese nationals is not reliably published and must be confirmed with the mission. A yellow-fever vaccination certificate may be required depending on the route taken.
Processing time and tips
Issuance time depends on the mission and is not fixed in advance, so allow several weeks of margin. Check the length of stay and validity shown on the sticker before you leave. Scan the whole file and keep copies.
Common mistakes
Do not count on a visa on arrival, which does not exist for Togolese travellers. Do not assume an Afghan embassy is present in Lomé. Finally, wait until the visa is issued before confirming non-changeable bookings.
