Official evidence timeline

One group agreement or destination policy can support many passport relationships. Dates are recorded only when an official source establishes them.

  1. Current official routeVisa-free

    Current ECOWAS member ordinary passports: visa-free short visits

    The PAF selector explicitly returns no visa for these current ECOWAS issuing authorities, and the ECOWAS free-movement protocol separately provides visa-free entry for a Community citizen visiting up to 90 days.

    • The protocol requires a valid travel document and international health certificate, entry through an official point, and a stay not exceeding 90 days; an extension needs permission.
    • Guinea may refuse admission to an inadmissible immigrant. Work, residence, establishment, transit, crew, diplomatic, official, service and special-document treatment are not normalized by this short-visitor policy.
    11 passport nationalities covered

    Benin, Cape Verde Islands, Côte d'Ivoire, The Gambia, Ghana, Guinea-Bissau, Liberia, Nigeria, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Togo

  2. Current official routeVisa-free

    Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger ordinary passports: transitional visa-free movement

    The PAF selector returns no visa for Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger. ECOWAS's current transition statement directs authorities to continue their visa-free movement until further notice after their 2025 withdrawal.

    • The ECOWAS transition statement says authorities should recognize the countries' national passports and identity cards bearing the ECOWAS logo and continue visa-free movement until further notice.
    • The policy records only the ordinary-passport visitor result. Duration, detailed entry documents, residence, work, establishment, diplomatic, official, service, border-pass, security and admission requirements remain governed by competent Guinean rules.
    3 passport nationalities covered

    Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger

  3. Current official routeVisa-free

    PAF selector named non-ECOWAS ordinary passports: no visa

    The live PAF nationality selector routes these seven foreign issuing authorities to its explicit no-visa result. No duration or underlying bilateral instrument is published in the selector, so the finding remains bounded to the named ordinary-passport outcome.

    • The selector says a foreign national needs a visa except visa-waiver countries and gives this cohort the no-visa result. It does not state a stay duration, purpose, or bilateral-instrument text.
    • It does not establish document-conditioned, residence, third-country visa, transit, work, crew, diplomatic, official, service, refugee, emergency, stateless, security or admission treatment.

    PAF normal visitor cohort: online approval followed by arrival issuance

    For this explicit current selector cohort, the PAF service requires online approval and an Entry Visa Letter before travel, then directs the traveller to the visa-on-arrival counter for issuance and biometrics. It is normalized as eta because the prerequisite is an electronic pre-travel authorization and the final visa is issued at arrival.

    • The selector's normal visitor panel labels the tourist route as not exceeding 90 days. The PAF procedure requires the approved Entry Visa Letter before travel and says the final visa is obtained at the visa-on-arrival counter after photo and fingerprints.
    • The same published procedure lists a passport valid more than six months, Entry Visa Letter, sufficient funds, return ticket and accommodation; the service separately references a Yellow Fever certificate. Individual security, admissibility and border examination remain applicable.
    • This is not treated as a walk-up visa_on_arrival because prior online approval is expressly required, and not as evisa because the PAF procedure says the visa is issued at the arrival counter. It excludes work, residence, business-only, transit, crew, diplomatic, official, service and special-document routes.

    Canada and United States ordinary passports: online approval followed by arrival issuance

    The live PAF selector places Canada and the United States in a separate visitor panel but uses the same online approval and arrival-issuance procedure. It is normalized as eta for the same reason as the normal PAF cohort.

    • The selector's separate panel labels this route as not exceeding five years, but does not state whether that is visa validity or permitted visitor stay; no short-stay ceiling is asserted here.
    • The PAF procedure still requires the approved Entry Visa Letter before travel and directs the traveller to the visa-on-arrival counter for issuance and biometrics. Passport validity, funds, onward ticket, accommodation, health, security and admission requirements remain applicable.
    • This policy does not establish work, residence, business-only, transit, crew, diplomatic, official, service or special-document treatment.
    2 passport nationalities covered

    Palestinian ordinary passports: 2026 advance-visa visitor cohort

    The State of Palestine's current ordinary-passport schedule labels this exact destination cohort "Visa is required" and separately labels electronic and arrival-issued routes elsewhere in the same schedule. It is normalized as advance visa required.

    • This is the Ministry's ordinary-passport short-visitor baseline. The source separately labels eVisa and visa-on-arrival rows, so a bare "Visa is required" row is not recast as either route.
    • Georgia and Panama have separately stated waivers for holders of specified third-country visas. Those conditional document routes are excluded from this passport-only baseline.
    • Mission availability, passport recognition, individual admission, route, transit, work, residence, diplomatic, official, service and other special-document treatment are outside this policy.

    Macao SAR passports: eVisa for Angola, Burkina Faso, Guinea and São Tomé and Príncipe

    Macao DSI's current passport-specific country records expressly classify each listed destination's visitor route as eVisa.

    • Applies to an ordinary Macao SAR Passport, not a PRC national passport, Hong Kong SAR passport, Macao travel permit, residence document or special passport.
    • DSI's exact country records classify the route as eVisa; their linked destination services must be used before travel.
    • Purpose, validity, fees, entry points, carrier checks and final admission remain governed by the destination authority.
