Easiest border so far (heading south).
No road tax for motorcycle (veer left off the pavement and pass under the rope). At hut, register passport details in the book (no stamp). Down the road,
passport stamped no issue (we got visa in Rabat). Douanes charged 2500 CFA for pass-avant. Did not take carnet because G-B wasn't specifically listed.

Quick and friendly. Did not ask us for money, even though we saw most locals paying something to the officers there. Paid 2.500cfa road tax for our small car. Passavant (we have no cdp) is handled in Sao Domingos.

Report Check-In

Very quick border but in the first building 2 guys are writing down the exact same information demanding CFA 1000 each. I tried everything I could not to pay but they wouldn’t let me go. Of course no receipt. Other than that official road tax with receipt (CFA 5000) and very quick immigration and douane post.

Friendly, I got visa in Ziguinchor 25000Cfa for Moroccan passeport, they speak English

Report Check-In

Easy and friendly. All paperwork done with a smile. No issues, they stamped passport and CdP in a very professional way. If you don’t speak Portuguese or Kriolu, I think they also speak English as they addressed me in English seeing our blond hair :-) So all in all a very pleasant experience and nothing to worry about.

Easy border but two guys asked for 1000 CFA each to write our information and the car, another guy told us it’s not an official payment so be aware :)

Here it’s possible to pay directly the « road tax » 10 000 for a month, just ask the guy

Passavant is still in Sao Domingos, we paid 2500 for 15 days

Report Check-In

Crossed without any issues. No payment required or requested. Road to Bissau is bad. mostly heavily pot holed asphalt or dirt. Passable in most weather conditions though if there's been heavy rain proceed with caution.
