Overview

Comoros coverage is lite because the official presidency and Comoros embassy sources provide useful visitor, airport-visa, business-visa and courtesy-visa detail, but the reviewed public source packet does not expose stable route-level work, residence, family or general long-stay checklists. Applicants should use the official embassy and presidency sources, then confirm any employment, residence, study, family or longer-stay compliance step with the competent Comorian authority, host, employer or school before relying on it. The official embassy source says private-visit, tourism and research visa requests are made on arrival at Prince Said Ibrahim International Airport or Ouani Airport, with biometric enrolment at the airport visa area and immediate issue after handling. It also lists the private-visit, tourism and research evidence categories and states a short-stay visa fee of 15,000 KMF or 30 euros for a stay not exceeding one month.

ℹ️ Who can apply?

You do not need a job offer or employer to apply for the Airport Private, Tourism or Research Visa. This route does not lead to permanent residence. Open to qualifying applicants from all countries.
