How this access rule is documented

  1. Current official routeVisa on arrival

    Other verified residual ordinary passports: electronic preapproval followed by Gabon arrival visa sticker

    For the other 182 verified residual ordinary-passport codes, the authenticated DGDI service requires online travel authorisation before flying but issues and takes payment for the visa sticker on arrival. The normalized route is visa on arrival, not a pre-travel electronically issued visa.

    • The live DGDI catalog provides a normal selectable country record for each of these 182 passport nationalities and its exemption table lists none as an ordinary-passport exemption. The portal directs non-exempt applicants through its online visa process and requires a Travel Authorization Receipt before travel.
    • This is not a genuine pre-travel eVisa issuance: the service says payment occurs on arrival when the eVisa sticker is delivered. The online authorisation is a prerequisite to the border-issued visa, so the normalized status is visa_on_arrival.
    • The Government's current notice limits this route to air travel through Libreville LĂ©on-Mba International Airport. It does not establish a land, sea, work, residence, transit, crew, diplomatic, official, service, refugee, or special-document route.
    • The DGDI host currently omits a trusted TLS issuer chain. The Government notice directly authenticates the host and the leaf certificate covers it, but the service must be rechecked when its normal secure chain is restored; do not rely on a browser certificate override as independent verification.
