they no longer do tourist visas here. only visas for people who are residents of Cameroon. he told me it should be possible to get a visa on arrival entering from Congo-Brazzaville but he didn't sound 100% sure

The security guard gave us the forms for the visa, but two hours later a woman told us that tourist visa are only possible at the border. We went here to get some information on the official application process, but she was not of much help.

It’s NOT possible anymore to get a visa for Congo Kinshasa here. After a lot of confusion the unfriendly woman told us. She said only a visum on arrival at the border is possible.

Access is from the road to the south of the pin. Form, passport, two photos. 100k for next day 0800 pickup when I visited on Monday at 0900 for me.

Not much to add. We had to wait two days for the visa, I don’t know why. I guess you should get there really early in the morning in order to get the visa the next day, we were there around 10:00 am.

Still the same to comments below.

Your visa will be valid until three months from the application date. Once you enter you have 30 days. Even though they make you fill an entry date on the application form, it's not important. Might save a bit of planning stress when applying for Congo Brazza & Congo Kinshasa visas.

100.000 cfa for same day express and 75.000 cfa for three days waiting. I just handed my money, passport and date of entry to the security guy at the door.

Prices still the same: 75.000 fcfa for a german passport. Make sure to have either the Gabon- or the ROC visa before applying for the DRC visa. They refused to issue a visa without having Gabon or DRC first. Also be aware of the entry date you put down on the form. We applied on the 10th of march and put the 20th as our entry date. Now the visa says "ISSUED on the 20th". We already had problems at police checkpoints in cameroon - since the date of issuing is in the future they believed our visas are fake.

At the embassy they asked us for the following:
- 2 pictures
- YF-vaccination
- Hotel reservation
- passport copy

Also wanted to SEE either Gabon- or ROC Visa, as stated above.
