Do Ivorians need a visa for Liberia?

No visa needed.

Visa free

You can board a flight to Liberia on a passport from Côte d’Ivoire with no visa. The officer on arrival sets how long you may stay. Immigration will still want to see a return ticket, somewhere to stay, and enough money for the trip.

Book your flight. Any site offering to sell you a Liberia visa, permit or "travel authorisation" for this trip is selling you something you do not need.

If you are travelling on a different passport, Liberia's official entry rules are at visaonarrival.lis.gov.lr.

Before you fly

What Liberia asks for

  • Flight ticket scan (optional)
  • The approval letter with QR code, printed or on your phone, to show at the airport

Worth knowing

  • If there is a Liberian embassy in your country, you must apply there instead of through the Visa on Arrival portal.

How long it takes

Apply online at least 7 days before your flight and no more than 3 months ahead. Once approved, you must enter Liberia within 3 months.
