Transit
Guinea Transit Visa
Guinea publishes 2 transit visa products for travellers passing through to another destination. Whether you need one depends on your nationality and whether you stay airside - see how transit visas work.
Transit Visa (Visa de Transit)
For travelers passing through Guinea in transit to a third country. Permits brief stay not exceeding three days.
Applied online via paf.gov.gn; collected at border arrival counter with biometric registration. Requires valid passport, onward ticket, and Yellow Fever certificate.
Apply here ↗Transbordement Visa (Visa de Transbordement / VTB)
For travelers transiting or transshipping through Guinea to a third country; issued on presentation of an onward ticket and, where applicable, a visa for the country of final destination.
Corrected 2026-07-04: the prior record incorrectly listed this as a 5-year, USD 150 multiple-entry visa (it had been conflated with the VESRM Multiple Entry Visa). Per the official paf.gov.gn e-visa portal, the Transbordement/Transit visa (VTB) fee is USD 50 with a maximum stay not exceeding three days (DCPAF states validity of 3 to 5 days, beyond which a short-stay visa is required). Distinct from the general Transit Visa, this is the transshipment visa for travelers transferring between carriers/vessels; both are USD 50 for a maximum 3-day stay on the official portal. Requires valid passport, onward ticket, and Yellow Fever certificate. Applied online via paf.gov.gn; collected at border arrival counter.
