Entry for citizens of Côte d’Ivoire

Rwanda's entry rules depend on nationality, not on where you set off; from Comoé District, citizens of Côte d’Ivoire follow this one. Citizens of this country receive a 90-day visa free of charge on arrival. Côte d’Ivoire belongs to the African Union and La Francophonie. The official source is Rwanda's Directorate General of Immigration and Emigration; apply online on Irembo if you need a visa before travelling.

Money and payment

Rates are in US dollars rather than the West African CFA franc (XOF); guests pay by USD transfer, in Rwandan francs, by MTN MoMo, by Airtel Money or in crypto. No payment details are published on this website: the concierge sends them once your dates are confirmed.

Cash is also accepted on arrival at the villa, in US dollars or Rwandan francs, with a written receipt from the concierge.
