Angola is a large country on Africa's Atlantic coast with diverse landscapes ranging from the coastal capital Luanda to the highlands of Huambo and the remote wilderness of Cuando Cubango. Visitors are drawn to Kalandula Falls (one of Africa's largest waterfalls), the historic São Miguel Fort in Luanda, colonial-era architecture, and emerging ecotourism in national parks including Kissama and Iona. Angola's oil-driven economy attracts business travelers while tourism infrastructure continues to develop following decades of civil conflict.

Visa Requirements for Angola

Most foreign nationals require a visa to enter Angola. Angola introduced a tourist e-visa system for eligible nationalities, allowing online application and processing within days. Applicants submit a digital application form, passport scan, passport photograph, yellow fever vaccination certificate, proof of accommodation, return flight ticket, and travel insurance. Business travelers require invitation letters from Angolan companies or organizations along with business registration documents. Traditional visa applications through embassies remain available for those ineligible for e-visa or requiring work, study, or long-term residence permits. Processing times vary; e-visa is fastest for tourist purposes.
