Entry requirements

RequirementDetailsStatus
Visa on arrival
Visa on arrival at Moroni International Airport
Get your visa at the airport upon arrival. Have $50 USD in cash ready — the visa counter does not accept cards. You'll fill in a short form and hand over your passport. The process takes about 10 minutes.Check visa detailsRequired
Valid passport
Must be valid for the duration of stay
Your passport needs to be valid for at least the length of your stay in Comoros. Airlines at Tashkent (TAS) may ask for 6 months validity — check with your carrier before flying.Required
Return or onward ticket
Proof of departure from Comoros
Immigration at Hahaya Airport checks for a return or onward ticket before stamping you in. Have your printed or digital booking ready. If you're island-hopping, a flight to Mayotte or Madagascar works.Required
Proof of accommodation
Hotel booking or host invitation
Carry a printed hotel reservation or a letter from your host. Immigration rarely asks, but having it avoids delays if they do. If you're staying on Grande Comore, Mohéli, or Anjouan, a booking confirmation is enough.Recommended
Proof of funds
Cash or card for your stay
Bring enough cash in euros or dollars for your trip — ATMs are scarce and unreliable in Comoros. A credit card works at a few hotels in Moroni, but most places take cash only. Budget around $50–$100 per day for food and transport.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 small bills.
Visa on arrival only at Moroni airport
This facility is only available at Prince Said Ibrahim International Airport. If you arrive by sea or at another airport, you need a visa in advance.
