  • All Citizens of any country who hold a Diplomatic, Official or Service passport can obtain a visa on arrival.[1][3]

e-Visa

[edit]

On 18 February 2018, the government of Djibouti introduced an e-Visa system for foreign visitors intended to replace the visa on arrival system. Visitors can apply for a transit visa valid for 3 days or a single entry visit visa valid for 31 days. e-Visa is issued only for tourism or commerce purposes.[5] Holders of e-Visa can enter Djibouti through Ambouli International Airport or any other border crossing.[6]
