Requirements and Instructions for the Cote d'Ivoire Visas
Entry/Exit Requirements
"A passport is required, but U.S. citizens traveling to Cote
d'Ivoire for business or tourism do not require visas for stays
of 90 days or less. To stay longer than 90 days, the visitor may
still enter without a visa, but then must apply for a "visa
de sejour" at the National Police Headquaters within 90 days
of arrival. If the intent is to establish a residence in Cote d’Ivoire,
the visitor must apply for a “carte de séjour”
at the Office d’Identification Nationale (Note: "Cartes
de sejour" are not issued to children under the age of 16,
who are documented on their parents' visas). An international
health certificate showing current yellow fever immunization is
required for entry into Cote d'Ivoire. Without it, the
traveler may be required to submit to vaccination at the airport
health office before clearing immigration, at a cost of 5,000 CFA
(a little over $10)." - US State Dept
