## Evidence timeline

- **Current official route — Rwandan ordinary passports: named visa-free short visits** (Visa-free)
  Rwanda DGIE's live ordinary-passport column records Visa not required for the Democratic Republic of the Congo and São Tomé and Príncipe.
  - This is limited to the two retained named rows in DGIE's ordinary-passport column; it is not inferred from regional membership, a portal, or an omitted nationality.
  - The live list has no publication or revision date. It supports the matching fallback rows but should be rechecked if Rwanda DGIE publishes a dated replacement or a destination authority publishes a contrary current rule.
  - Stay period, purpose limits, special passports, carrier requirements and final admission remain separate.
