Visas
Morocco to South Africa (up to date as of 2019 with a Canadian passport)
| Country | Comments |
|---|---|
| Morocco | No visa |
| Western Sahara | Considered the same country as Morocco, if you stay near the coast |
| Mauritania | Visa on Arrival (euros) |
| Senegal | No visa |
| The Gambia | No visa (check for your nationality) |
| Guinea-Bissau | Dakar, Senegal |
| Guinea | Dakar, Senegal |
| Sierra Leone | Conakry, Guinea |
| Liberia | Dakar, Senegal |
| Cote d’Ivoire | Monrovia, Liberia or e-visa |
| Ghana | Monrovia, Liberia |
| Togo | Abidjan, Cote d’Ivoire |
| Benin | E-Visa |
| Nigeria | Tourist visa needs to be obtained in country of residence. Freetown, Sierra Leone is worth trying as I’ve heard some travellers were able to get it there. If this is not possible (often it isn’t for overlanders as expiry is too short), you can try to obtain a business visa on arrival instead. You can try doing this through the website or depending on your moral level (?), there are “assistance services” by immigration officers who easily provide a visa-on-arrival letter. Then you’ll be escorted from the Benin border to Lagos airport to get the visa. This is a fun process taking 4+ hours and over 20 police checkpoints. |
| Cameroon | Calabar, Nigeria |
| Gabon | Yaounde, Cameroon |
| Congo | Libreville, Gabon |
| DRC | Tourist visa needs to be obtained in country of residence. I managed to convince the embassy in Accra, Ghana to give me one but whether they will accept it at the border or not is a risk. Last I heard it might be possible to get one in Cameroon. |
| Angola | Matadi, DRC. Also possible in Kinshasa |
| Namibia | No visa |
| South Africa | No visa |
