Ukrainian passport holders can get a visa on arrival in Comoros. You'll handle it at the airport in Moroni — no need to apply in advance. As of 2026, the process is straightforward, but you'll need a few key documents ready.
Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must cover your full stay | At least 6 months validity beyond your entry date. Minimum 1 blank page for the entry stamp. Airlines may deny boarding if validity is too close. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Officers check this regularly | A confirmed flight out of the country. Immigration may ask to see this — have a screenshot ready on your phone. An onward ticket from a neighbouring country also works. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel name or address | A hotel booking confirmation, or the address of where you are staying. The arrival form often asks for this. A Booking.com or Airbnb confirmation email is fine. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Rarely checked | Immigration officers may ask you to demonstrate sufficient funds for your stay. A credit card or bank statement usually suffices. | Recommended |
Cash only for visa on arrival
The visa fee must be paid in cash — Euros or US dollars. There's no ATM at the visa counter, and cards aren't accepted. Bring enough to cover the fee (€30-50) plus some extra for emergencies.
Visa on arrival is straightforward
The process at Moroni airport is usually quick — 10-20 minutes. Have your documents ready and you'll be through without hassle.
What happens at the border

Present your documents
Hand over your passport, return ticket (printed or on phone), and accommodation booking. The officer will process your visa. Payment is in cash — Euros or US dollars are accepted. As of 2026, the fee is around €30-50 depending on your nationality.
3
Receive your visa and enter
The officer stamps your passport and gives you a visa sticker. You're then free to proceed to baggage claim and customs. Keep the visa sticker safe — you'll need it when you leave.
