Documents you need for an Algerian visa
Every application shares a core document set, with additional papers added according to the visa type requested.
Important
According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, every visa application must be completed in duplicate and accompanied by a passport valid for at least six months, a photocopy of the passport, two recent identity photographs, matching identity documents, and a travel insurance and repatriation assistance certificate.
Additional documents depend on the visa type: for example an invitation or employer letter for business, a registration certificate for study, a Temporary Work Authorisation and employment contract for work, and proof of family relationship for a family visa.
