Rwanda eVisa – A Convenient Travel Permit for Visitors

Rwanda has developed an efficient electronic visa system that simplifies travel for international visitors. Through this system, travelers can receive pre-approval before entering the country, eliminating the need to visit an embassy or consulate. The eVisa is suitable for purposes such as tourism, family visits, attending conferences, or short-term business engagements.

Rwanda offers several types of eVisas. The most common is the single-entry visa, which allows a stay of up to 30 days. Travelers also have the option of the East Africa Tourist Visa, which enables movement between Rwanda, Kenya, and Uganda on a single visa—ideal for multi-country trips. Multiple-entry visas for business or frequent travel may also be available, depending on the applicant’s profile and supporting documents.

The eVisa process involves completing an online application form, uploading a valid passport copy and a recent passport-size photo, and submitting payment. In some cases, travelers may be asked to provide hotel reservations or travel plans to support their application. Once approved, the eVisa is sent by email and should be printed and carried during travel.

Processing typically takes 5 to 7 business days, but it’s advisable to complete the procedure several days in advance to avoid any disruptions. Upon arrival at Kigali International Airport or designated land borders, travelers must present their eVisa printout along with their passport.
