Citizens of every country can get a visa on arrival at Kigali International Airport and at all land borders, or apply online before travelling. The visa fee does not exceed USD 50 for a single entry or USD 70 for multiple entries. Before you fly, confirm the rule for your passport on the official immigration page; online applications go through Irembo.
Money and payment
Rates are in US dollars rather than the euro (EUR); 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.
