Entry requirements

RequirementDetailsStatus
Valid passport
Must be valid for the duration of your stay

Visa on arrival
Obtain at the airport upon arrival
You get a visa on arrival at Prince Said Ibrahim International Airport in Moroni. Pay the fee in cash (EUR or USD) — expect around €30–€50 depending on your nationality. Have a passport photo ready just in case.Required
Return or onward ticket
Proof of departure from Comoros
Immigration officers routinely ask for a confirmed onward or return ticket. Without one, you may be refused boarding or entry. A printed itinerary or e-ticket works fine.Required
Proof of accommodation

Proof of funds
Show you can cover your stay
Carry at least €200–€300 in cash or have a bank statement showing sufficient funds. Immigration rarely checks this, but it's safer to have it on hand.Recommended
Cash only at the visa counter

Frequently asked questions

Up to 45 days. The officer will write the exact date in your passport. If you need longer, you must apply for an extension at the immigration office in Moroni before your visa expires.
Yes, but it's not automatic. You need to visit the Direction Générale de la Documentation Nationale in Moroni. Extensions are granted in 30-day increments and cost around €20–30. Start the process at least a week before your visa expires.
Comoros has only one international airport: Prince Said Ibrahim International Airport (HAH) in Moroni. All international flights land there. The visa on arrival is processed on the spot.
Only if you're arriving from a country with yellow fever risk. If you're flying directly from Europe (including Slovakia), no vaccine is required. But if you've been in an endemic country within 6 days, you'll need the yellow card.
No. Comoros does not offer eVisas or embassy-issued visas for Slovak passport holders. The visa on arrival is the only option.
You'll be fined at the airport when you leave. The fine is about €10–15 per day overstayed. Pay in cash (euros or dollars) before going through passport control.
Generally yes, but petty crime like bag snatching occurs in Moroni. Avoid walking alone at night. The political situation is stable, but check your government's travel advisory before booking.
