The explicit named current schedule governs this policy; Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger are handled only by the separate transition policy. - Entry must be through an official entry point with a valid travel document and international health certificate. A stay beyond 90 days requires permission from the appropriate authority. - Guinea-Bissau retains the protocol’s power to refuse admission to a Community citizen categorized as an inadmissible immigrant under its laws. - Residence, establishment, work, commercial activity, family, refugee, diplomatic, official, service, special-document, security and individual admissibility rules are not normalized by this short-visitor policy. Official sources: - [Economic Community of West African States Commission: Protocol A/P.1/5/79 on free movement of persons, residence and establishment](https://ecowas.int/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/PROTOCOL-RELATING-TO-FREE-MOVEMENT-OF-PERSONS.pdf) - [Economic Community of West African States: ECOWAS current Member States](https://www.ecowas.int/member-states/) - **Current official route — Guinea-Bissau: transitional visa-free entry for Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger citizens** (Visa-free) Although Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger withdrew from ECOWAS on 29 January 2025, ECOWAS directs relevant authorities to continue their citizens’ visa-free movement until further notice. - The current ECOWAS instruction is expressly transitional and applies until further notice; it must be rechecked for a subsequent ECOWAS Authority decision. - The instruction requires recognition of national passports or identity cards bearing the ECOWAS logo. This policy is limited to ordinary passports meeting that document condition and does not classify non-ECOWAS-logo, alien, refugee, emergency or other special travel documents. - The source maintains free movement, residence and establishment under ECOWAS protocols; the protocol’s official-entry-point, health-certificate, 90-day visitor extension and inadmissibility conditions remain material. Official sources: - [Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS): ECOWAS 29 January 2025 statement on Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger withdrawal](https://www.ecowas.int/press-statement-2/) - [Economic Community of West African States Commission: Protocol A/P.1/5/79 on free movement of persons, residence and establishment](https://ecowas.int/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/PROTOCOL-RELATING-TO-FREE-MOVEMENT-OF-PERSONS.pdf) - **Current official route — Irish ordinary passports: expressly pre-departure mission visas** (Visa required) DFA guidance establishes an advance mission-application or pre-flight possession requirement for these ordinary Irish-passport visitor routes. - GW: applications are made in person at Guinea-Bissau diplomatic missions in Paris or Lisbon. LR: applications from Ireland are submitted to the Liberian Embassy in London. - SS: the DFA says a visitor cannot fly to Juba without a valid visa, establishing that the visa must be held before departure; the page does not normalize any online filing channel as electronic issuance. - Visitor purpose, document, sponsor, registration, health, security and final-admission conditions remain applicable. Official sources: - [Department of Foreign Affairs: Guinea-Bissau travel advice](https://www.ireland.ie/en/dfa/overseas-travel/advice/guinea-bissau/) - [Department of Foreign Affairs: Liberia travel advice](https://www.ireland.ie/en/dfa/overseas-travel/advice/liberia/) - [Department of Foreign Affairs: South Sudan travel advice](https://www.ireland.ie/en/dfa/overseas-travel/advice/south-sudan/) - **Current official route — German ordinary passports: named visitor visas issued at arrival** (Visa on arrival) The Federal Foreign Office expressly identifies a border-issued short-visitor route for each listed German ordinary-passport destination. - DJ: a visa can be applied for at entry. KM: tourist visa is issued on arrival at Grande Comore international airport. TM: airport issuance requires a pre-issued Turkmen Migration Service visa approval/invitation. CI: prior online application is followed by issuance at entry. GW: airport visa is available for 30 days; land-border issuance is unavailable. BD: normally available for tourism or business up to 30 days at Dhaka international airport, subject to listed documents. KH: tourist visa is available on arrival at all international border crossings. - TM and CI are classified as visa_on_arrival because the visa itself is issued at the border after pre-approval, not because of their online or pre-travel steps. This excludes special documents, work, residence and final admission.

Official sources: - [Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan: Djibouti: Overseas Safety Basic Data](https://www.anzen.mofa.go.jp/info/pcsafetymeasure_141.html) - [Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan: Guinea-Bissau: Overseas Safety Basic Data](https://www.anzen.mofa.go.jp/info/pcsafetymeasure_140.html) - **Current official route — French ordinary passports: named advance visa routes** (Visa required) Current official material establishes advance mission processing or issuance for each listed French ordinary-passport visitor route. - AF: single-entry visas are issued by Afghanistan’s Embassy in France. KP: visa available through the DPRK General Delegation in France. LY: visa before arrival. SD: prior visa. SY: Syrian diplomatic or consular representation issues the visa. CG: obtain before departure; no arrival visa. SS: airlines may refuse boarding without a pre-departure visa and France-based applicants use the Paris embassy. CF: the CAR Paris Embassy processes the passport and short-stay application. GQ: no arrival visa and the Paris embassy states required documents. GW: French applications go to the Guinea-Bissau Embassy in Paris; its exceptional Bissau-airport route is not the standard France-resident route. LR: France residents apply through the Liberian Embassy. ML: Mali consulates in Paris or Lyon issue it; no arrival visa. NE: prior visa only; no arrival visa. NG: portal submission is followed by physical dossier submission to OIS Paris for processing. TD: diplomatic or consular mission issuance only; no border visa. - This records ordinary French-passport short-visitor routes only and does not normalize travel warnings, operational access, work, residence, special documents or final admission.
