Entering Angola without a visa

  1. Check that your passport is valid for at least 6 months after arrival and has a blank page for the entry stamp.
  2. Carry proof of onward travel and your accommodation address, as border officers may ask for them.
  3. Get your entry stamp at passport control (up to 30 days per trip).

Most African countries treat all EU passports the same way, but some do not (Mozambique and Rwanda, for example). This page uses the rule for the Netherlands.

Health requirements

Yellow fever. A yellow fever vaccination certificate is required for all arriving travellers (usually from 9 months or 1 year of age).

Malaria. Malaria is present across most of the country. Ask a travel clinic about antimalarial tablets.

Book a travel clinic visit 6 to 8 weeks before departure. Some vaccines, including yellow fever, must be given at least 10 days before you arrive.

Travel advice for Dutch travellers
