  2. Libya

    Tip: sponsor first

    Before
    No sponsor, no visa: a tourist visa application on Libya's eVisa portal must be sponsored by a tourism company registered with the Passports, Nationality and Foreigners Affairs Authority, and must include the company's letter naming the tour group and destination.

    After
    The UK FCDO says Liberia is generally stable politically but the crime rate is high, mostly opportunistic theft; foreigners have been mugged in Monrovia's Mamba Point and Sinkor areas.

  4. Liberia

    FAQ answer

    Before
    No — tourists cannot rely on a visa on arrival. Arrange your visa before travel through an embassy or Liberia's eVisa channel; airlines will normally refuse boarding without one.

    Only with approval in advance. Liberia Immigration Service's online e-visa (USD 102.50, non-refundable) is approved before travel and the visa is then issued at Roberts International Airport only; apply at least 7 days before your flight. If there is a Liberian embassy in your country, you must apply there instead.
