Cameroon’s Foreign Minister, Lejeune Mbella, announced on Friday that visa applications for the country will be available online beginning April 30.
He also stated that the procedure will be completed within 72 hours of pre-enrollment, or 24 hours in the case of express visa applications.
Mbella stated that applications would be processed “exclusively” online through www.evisacam.cm, and that online visa authorization would be issued to applicants.
The minister disclosed that applicants can then go to either a diplomatic mission or a border post to actually obtain their visas.
“For applicants in areas far-flung from a diplomatic mission or those not covered by a mission, “an online visa authorisation, together with a QR code, shall round off the phase.”
“Cameroon’s e-visa system is part of an effort to turn Cameroon into a more attractive destination, while at the same time addressing some of the concerns of Cameroon’s diaspora and aligning our consular system with the highest international standard.”
