Equatorial Guinea Visa FAQs
When is the best time to apply for my Equatorial Guinea visa?
The best time to apply for your Equatorial Guinea visa is 1-2 months before your travel date. However, if you are running short on time, we may be able to process your visa on a faster service at the Embassy’s discretion.
Do I have to send you my passport to get a Equatorial Guinea visa? Is it safe to send a passport?
Yes. You will need to send your actual passport, not a copy of it. The Equatorial Guinea visa is stamped on your passport and will become one of your passport pages. Visa request cannot be processed without your original passport.
