Yellow fever vaccination required
Liberia requires proof of yellow fever vaccination for all arrivals. Bring your yellow card — you'll need to show it at immigration.
What happens at the border
1
Apply for a visa at a Liberian embassy
Contact the nearest Liberian embassy or consulate (e.g., in Moscow, Ankara, or Washington D.C.) to submit your visa application. You'll need your passport, a completed form, passport photos, and possibly a letter of invitation. Processing takes 5–10 business days. Pay the visa fee (typically $100–$150 USD).

Once your visa is approved, book a return flight and your first night's accommodation in Liberia. Keep all confirmations — you'll need them at immigration.
3
Arrive at Roberts International Airport (ROB)
When you land in Monrovia, go to the immigration counter. Present your passport with the visa sticker, your return ticket, and accommodation confirmation. The officer may ask a few questions about your trip. After stamping, you're in.
