Important Info
The DRC issues an online pre-arrival entry authorization (Visa Aéroportuaire / e-Visa) via the Direction Générale de Migration's official portal (evisa.gouv.cd). This is a short-stay, single-entry authorization: part of the official government fee (US$300) is paid online in advance, with a further US$90 collected on arrival at the airport, for a total official government cost of US$390. Given ongoing security concerns and travel advisories affecting parts of eastern DRC, this service covers standard tourist entry (typically via Kinshasa) only. Travellers should check current Indian government and DRC travel advisories for their specific destination region before booking; this eVisa service does not cover or endorse travel to any area under active conflict or travel-advisory restriction.
