eVisa required — apply early
Liberia does not offer visa on arrival for Polish citizens. You must get an eVisa before you travel. Start the process at least a week before your trip — 3–5 business days processing plus buffer time.
Passport validity counts from entry date
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the day you land in Liberia, not from your departure date. If it expires sooner, renew it first.
