Liberia announced the launch of the electronic visa (e-Visa)

More and more African countries are introducing an e-Visa system. Liberia has not become an exception and has already resumed the program of introducing e-Visa for foreign citizens in 2023.

Recall that Liberia is a visa country for most countries. The application process, as in a number of other countries, is standard and involves submitting applications through Liberia's diplomatic missions. Switching to online visa application will greatly simplify the procedure and reduce the time it takes to obtain a visa.

The adoption of the e-visa initiative for Liberia is an important step towards modernizing the country's visa policy and enhancing its competitiveness among Africa's leading tourism and business destinations.

Liberia's new electronic visa system (e-Visa) is designed not only to simplify and improve the visa-on-arrival process, which currently remains complex and insufficiently structured, but also to ensure a harmonized approach to biometric data collection in line with international standards.

The introduction of e-Visa marks an important technological advancement for the country and also demonstrates the Government of Liberia's commitment to making visa procedures more accessible and transparent.

The reorganization of Liberia's visa policy is aimed not only at facilitating entry into the country, but also at enhancing national security as well as regional cooperation. The transition to an electronic visa system will enable Liberia to keep pace with modern trends in migration control and create a more favorable environment for foreign visitors to enter the country legally.

The transition to the e-Visa system will enable Liberia to increase its attractiveness to foreign tourists and business travelers, as well as open new opportunities for the development of the country's economy. This is an important step towards increasing the country's investment attractiveness and developing its tourism potential.
