Documents you need
The core supporting documents required for most Cameroon visa applications.
Important
Every applicant needs a passport valid for at least six months beyond the intended date of entry, with blank pages, and a recent passport-style photograph. Cameroon also requires a valid International Certificate of Vaccination showing yellow fever immunisation for entry.
Beyond these basics, the exact document list depends on the visa purpose: tourists typically show proof of accommodation and a return ticket; business travellers an invitation letter; students a certificate of enrolment; and workers an employment contract and work authorisation.
