For the relevant traveller scope, is a visa, electronic authorisation, visa on arrival or no advance visa normally required?

An e-Visa is available but currently valid only for visiting Gabon by air via Leon Mba International Airport in Libreville; some countries are exempt from visas under bilateral agreements with Gabon.

See recorded sources
Limits of the record
  • The captured text does not include the list of exempt countries, so it does not show which nationalities need the e-Visa.

What short-visit purposes does this route cover?

The checked official sources did not provide enough route-specific evidence to confirm the visit purposes this route covers.

See recorded sources
Limits of the record
  • Not established: the correction failed a second independent check (GENERICA: 'Facilitate entry' describes the e-Visa itself and the settle-in-Gabon line is only a referral to dgdi.ga; no permitted visit purpose is stated (purposes are loaded dynamically, absent from capture); should be not_found or state purposes explicitly.)

What maximum stay, rolling-period rule, validity and entry rules apply?

E-Visas are granted as single entry for one to three months, or as multiple entry for six months. The official source does not state a maximum stay per entry or a rolling-period rule.

    The visa application form must be correctly fullfilled. All information on the form must match passport data.

Where/how is permission obtained when required, and under what important circumstances can a stay be extended or changed?

Processing takes 72 hours after the ETA request is received; applicants must not travel before the stated arrival date or without the Travel Authorization Receipt; payment is made on arrival when the e-Visa sticker is issued. The e-Visa can be extended at the DGDI visa department in Libreville: a 1-month visa by 2 months, a 2-month visa by 1 month; 3- and 6-month visas are not extended.
