Do I need a visa?

Do I need a visa?

All individuals entering Sierra Leone must possess a valid passport or travel document. Citizens of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) do not require a visa to enter the country. However, citizens of all other countries do require a visa. A visa can be obtained upon arrival, in advance through the Government E-Visa platform, or via our online visa facilitation service.

Visa Application Process

Need a business (multiple entry) visa?

Visas applied for through our website are single-entry visas. If you need a business (multiple-entry) visa and cannot visit a diplomatic office, we can provide this service for you once you arrive in Freetown. Please contact us for more information.

These guys are fantastic. Responsive, professional, very helpful with visa and immigration issues. Will absolutely use again, saved many hours of bouncing back and forth between offices for a residency permit. Special shout-out to Amadu who was great to work with!

So much easier and far cheaper than having to go to the Embassy - I can't imagine why anyone would not use VSL.

I had a great time visiting Sierra Leone to take part in the Street Child Half Marathon. The visa process was easy and I was greeted with friendliness and hospitality by all I met. Highly recommend a visit to Sierra Leone!
