🇨🇲 Cameroon Visa Procedures

Citizens of the Republic of Türkiye who wish to travel to the Central African country of Cameroon are required to obtain a visa in order to enter the country. However, holders of Diplomatic (Black), Service (Gray), and Special (Green) passports may travel to Cameroon without a visa. Ordinary (Bordeaux) passport holders must obtain an e-visa, which is issued electronically, and all applications must be made from Türkiye.

📝 How to Obtain a Cameroon Visa?

The Cameroon visa application process can be completed without personally going to the consulate. Once you have prepared your documents, your visa application form is filled out, an appointment is scheduled with the consulate, and your file is submitted for processing. When the visa is approved, your passport is delivered to your address. During this process, the only requirement for the applicant is to prepare the documents accurately and on time; all follow-up, form filling, and file management are handled by professional consultants.

🕒 Cameroon Visa in Urgent Cases

In urgent travel situations, Cameroon visas can be processed under an express procedure and finalized within a maximum of 48 hours. The express service is subject to an additional cost, and detailed guidance is provided during the application.

📌 Cameroon Visa Appointment

The authority to evaluate and finalize Cameroon visa applications belongs to the Honorary Consulate of Cameroon in Istanbul. It is necessary to obtain an appointment from the consulate for visa applications. However, during busy periods, the appointment date may be delayed. To receive your visa on time, it is recommended to apply at least one month before your planned travel date.

📝 Cameroon Visa Application Form

One of the most important steps of the application is the Cameroon Visa Application Form, which must be completed in English, in capital letters, and without omissions. The form includes personal information, passport details, travel dates, and travel purpose. The information provided must not contradict the supporting documents; otherwise, the visa may be denied. After completing the form, you must attach your photo, sign it, and include it in your file.

📌 Required Documents for a Cameroon Visa

The documents required for a Cameroon visa vary depending on the applicant’s professional status, type of visa, and duration of stay. Generally required documents include:

  • Completed and signed Cameroon Visa Application Form
  • Passport valid for at least 6 months
  • 2 recent biometric photographs
  • Copy of ID card
  • Hotel and flight reservations
  • Copy of yellow fever vaccination card
  • Bank account statement covering the last three months

For business visa applications, an official visa request letter written in English on company letterhead, signed by an authorized person, and company documents (certificate of activity, tax certificate, trade registry gazette, signature circulars), payroll slips, and SGK employment entry declaration must also be submitted. For family visit visas, an invitation letter is required.

If deemed necessary, the visa officer may request additional documents or call the applicant for an interview. For this reason, it is recommended to bring photocopies of your documents with you.

🕒 How Many Days Does a Cameroon Visa Take?

Under normal conditions, a Cameroon visa is finalized within 5 business days. However, official holidays, consular workload, or missing documents may extend this period. Cameroon visas are issued for 15 days, 3 months, or 6 months, and may be single-entry or multiple-entry. If you wish to extend your visa, you must apply to the Ministry of Interior in Cameroon.

💰 Cameroon Visa Fee 2025

The Cameroon visa fee varies depending on the visa type, duration, and number of entries. Fees differ for single-entry and multiple-entry visas. The fee includes consular charges and service fees. Since visa fees may vary depending on current exchange rates, it is recommended to confirm the updated amount before applying.

❌ Cameroon Visa Refusal

The decision to accept or reject a visa application belongs solely to the Honorary Consulate of Cameroon in Istanbul. Submitting your documents and paying the visa fee does not guarantee approval. If your documents are incomplete, your financial means insufficient, or your information cannot be verified, your application may be refused. In case of refusal, you may reapply after correcting the deficiencies.

📌 Important Considerations for a Cameroon Visa

Make sure that your passport is new, clean, and not damaged. Even if your visa is approved, entry to the country may be denied with a torn or worn-out passport.

Yellow fever vaccination is mandatory for Cameroon travel; you must carry your vaccination card as it will be requested upon entry. In addition, vaccinations for Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, Meningitis, Cholera, Polio, Tetanus, and Diphtheria are recommended.

Before obtaining your visa, plan your travel dates, flight, and hotel reservations carefully, as this is important for a smooth application process.
