The Chad Embassy Paris 2019 document (ambatchadparis.fr) states visa is free ('gratuit') for holders of Diplomatic or Service passports. Additionally, Circulaire 002/MSPI/SG/2017 grants visa-free entry (no visa required) to holders of diplomatic passports from 20 specific countries. These are processed through Chadian embassies and missions abroad, not through evisa.td.

The evisa.td platform states it covers 'all visa categories' under the new tariff decree. Long-stay and residence permits are distinct from short-stay tourist/business e-visas and would fall under separate categories within the same platform. The note-circulaire references 'work contracts' and 'employment documentation' as supporting documents, indicating work/long-stay visa categories exist within the system. Specific fee, validity, and duration details for long-stay visas are not published in the publicly-accessible pages of evisa.td. The Arrêté conjoint n°033/PR/PM/MFBEPCI/MSPI/2026 governs all fees.
