Current official routeVisa on arrival
Latvian ordinary passports: Côte d’Ivoire preapproved arrival visa
Latvian visitors need a Côte d’Ivoire visa; the State-approved flow pre-approves online but prints and issues it at Abidjan airport.
- Complete pre-enrolment and carry the approved document before boarding; at Abidjan airport complete biometric enrolment, where the visa is printed and issued.
- This normalizes actual issuance timing only; work, residence, special passports, eligibility checks and final admission remain separate.

Residual ordinary passports use Côte d’Ivoire's preapproved airport-issued visa
Côte d’Ivoire's current visitor baseline and live finite exemption schedule identify the visa-liable residual; SNEDAI requires approval before boarding but prints and issues the biometric visa at Abidjan airport.
- This policy covers only the ordinary-passport short-visitor residual after the live SNEDAI exemption schedule and separately supported current treaty or nationality exceptions are excluded.
- Complete online pre-enrolment, upload the required passport, return-ticket and invitation or accommodation documents, pay the fee and wait for D.S.T. approval before boarding.
- Present the approved pre-enrolment, payment receipt, passport and yellow-fever certificate at Abidjan airport; biometric enrolment, printing and visa issuance occur there.
- The visa is described as three-month multiple-entry; that is not normalized as a permitted stay length. Document validity, health rules and final admission remain separate.
