Overview
Chad public official sources reviewed for this packet support eVisa entry, exemption checks and extension direction through the official eVisa portal, but do not expose a complete public residence or work-permit corpus. This is lite coverage until deeper official residence and employment sources are verified. The official eVisa portal includes a visa-exempt country modal and says nationals of the listed countries are exempt from visa to enter the Republic of Chad. The live official list includes, among others, Cameroon, Congo, Cote d'Ivoire, Gabon, Equatorial Guinea, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, Central African Republic, Rwanda, Singapore and Togo, but travellers should use the portal list as the controlling source because exemptions can change.
