Step-by-Step Application Process

1

Register on Visamigo

Create a user account on the official Burkina Faso e-Visa platform (visamigo.bf) and start a new application.

2

Submit Documents and Pay

Upload high-quality digital scans of your passport and photograph, then pay the required visa fee securely online.

3

Print e-Visa and Travel

Upon approval within 5 working days, download and print the e-Visa confirmation letter to present at border control.

Required Documents

  • β€”Syrian passport valid for at least 6 months from entry with a minimum of 3 blank pages
  • β€”Printed e-Visa confirmation letter from the Visamigo platform
  • β€”Two recent biometric photographs (3.5 x 4.5 cm) taken on a plain white background
  • β€”Original International Certificate of Vaccination for Yellow Fever
  • β€”Confirmed round-trip flight tickets showing entry and exit from Ouagadougou
  • β€”Proof of accommodation such as a confirmed hotel reservation or a legalized invitation letter
  • β€”Proof of financial solvency, typically recent bank statements covering the last 3 months

Important Tips

  • β€’Initiate your e-Visa application at least 10 days before your intended flight to accommodate any unforeseen administrative delays.
  • β€’The standard tourist e-Visa grants a maximum stay of 90 days; overstaying will result in hefty fines and potential deportation.
  • β€’Since French is the official language, ensure all supplementary documents are translated into French by a certified translator.
  • β€’A Yellow Fever vaccination is strictly enforced at the border; without the original yellow card, you will be denied entry or forced to get vaccinated at the airport.

Easiest Way to Get It

Applying for the e-Visa online via the official Visamigo portal is the fastest, safest, and most highly recommended method for Syrian nationals.

Visa rules can change. Always verify with the official embassy.
