Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Visa on arrival Visa on arrival | Get your visa on arrival at Moroni International Airport. Pay the fee in cash (EUR or USD) — have the exact amount ready. The process takes about 15–30 minutes.Check visa details | Required |
| Valid passport Passport validity | Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your intended departure date from Comoros. Airlines check this before boarding — don't risk being turned away at check-in. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of onward travel | Immigration officers routinely ask for a confirmed return or onward ticket. Have a printed copy or a screenshot ready on your phone — they rarely accept verbal promises. | Required |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking | Carry a printed hotel confirmation or a digital copy on your phone. Immigration may ask where you're staying, especially if you arrive without a pre-booked hotel. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Financial means | Have access to at least €200 or equivalent in cash or a card. Officers rarely check, but it's better to be prepared than to be sent to the ATM at the airport. | Recommended |
Cash only for visa fee
The visa on arrival fee must be paid in cash — euros or US dollars. No credit cards, no ATMs at the airport. Bring exact change if possible.
Passport validity counts from entry date
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the day you land in Comoros, not from your departure date. Check your expiry date before booking.

Hand over your passport, form, and cash. The officer will process the payment and stamp the visa into your passport. This usually takes 5–10 minutes.
