Je dois partir au Cameroun fin Juillet pour 4 mois mais j ai du mal a comprendre comment obtenir le visa.
J ai tous les documents nécessaires (attestation, billets...), mais je n ai pas la possibilité de me rendre a l ambassade.
- est ce que je peux envoyer tous les élements directement par lettre recommandée ou est on obligé de passer par un organisme type "action-visa"?
- Combien coute précisément un visa pour 4 mois et sous quelle forme doit-on verser l'argent ?
- Est il possible d obtenir 4 mois d un coup ?
J attend vos réponses avec impatience.
Merci d avance
Clement
Salut siisif
je pense c'est impossible d'avoir le visa pour 4 mois.
Si tu passes par Action-visa, tu auras le visa pour 1 mois et sur place , tu peux prolonger. De toute facon, tu peux te renseigner sur place, ils te diront de payer un droit de sortie à la fin de ton séjour.
De toute façon, tout dépend du motif de ton voyage, si c'est visite familiale, tu auras la chance d'avir le permis pour 3 mois et si tu fais 1 mois d eplus, le mieux serait de payer le visa de sorti, le jour de ton départ.
Bref, je suis disponible pour d'autres informations.
Bonne recherche.
Bonjour,
Je suis allé à l' Ambassade du Cameroun à Paris fin avril demander un visa long séjour de 6 mois
pour création de commerce et le visa coute 192 euros.
Payable uniquement en espéces .
Visa de 1 à 3 mois 100 euros .
Dépose de la demande le matin avant midi et le passeport est remis à 16 h le même jour .
Par une agence c'est plus long et si le dossier n'est pas satisfaisant cela entraine une perte de temps .
En Novembre avec un bon dossier et 3 séjours récents au Cameroun ,
ma demande de visa temporaire de 3 mois a été rejetée
et j' ai obtenu seulement un visa touristique de 30 jours ....
Le visa touriste n'étant pas prolongeable à "'Yaoundé" , j' ai dû écourter mon séjour
En 2008 et 2009 , le visa de 3 mois avait été accordé !!
Tout dépend du dossier , travail , affaire ect ....
Cela me semble un peu risqué d'envoyer ta demande (et ton passeport) directement, même en recommandé. Si tu ne peux te déplacer, je recommande de passer par un organisme comme action-visa qui sont sérieux.
Tu peux peut-être demander un visa d'affaires si tu as un contact sur place qui peut t'arranger le coup... C'est le moyen le plus simple, le plus réglo, mais un peu plus cher.
Pour ma part, en voulant partir 5 semaine, j'ai demandé 3 mois en tourisme, après 2 précédents séjours, toujours pour raison familiale, mais on ne m'a donné qu'un mois. Pourtant, j'avais fait une belle lettre à l'intention de monsieur le consul.
Du coup, j'avais un visa expiré d'une semaine quand j'ai présenté à l'aéroport. Il y a peu de contrôle, seulement une femme en tenue qui vérifie et tamponne, pas de système informatique rigide. Elle me dit que c'est expiré et qu' "il faut laver la face à ta sœur avec le jus". Amusant, non ? Je lui ai donné 1000F et je suis parti avec le sourire.
Bon, je vais me faire "insulter" car ce n'est pas politiquement correct, mais je voudrais faire appel à vos expériences respectives : est-il faisable d'économiser les 100€ de frais de visa, et de donner par exemple 10000F à la personne qui contrôle les visa à l'entrée (et 10000 lors de la sortie) ? Discrètement en mettant le billet dans le passeport, ça doit pouvoir se tenter.
Merci pour vos conseils, je vais passer par action-visas c est vrai que c est un peu plus cher mais c est réglo.
Je vais voir combien de temps ils me donnent, de toute facon pour 4 mois je serais obligé d aller prolonger le visa.(est ce que c est toujours 100e mm sur place ?)
En cas de pb je garde l idée du billet dans le passeport ca peut éviter des ennuis ;)
Bon ca a l air d être le bordel pour les visas mais a par ca le voyage vaut le coup ? Rassurez moi !
Tout depend ce que tu viens faire au Cameroun, tourisme, Amour, commerce etc mais c'est un beau pays beaucoup trop de corruption malheureusement.......................
Africainblan , j' ai lu sur ta fiche que tu avais réussi à vivre au Cameroun , j' espére y arriver aussi !!!
Dommage pour la corruption , tout le monde en souffre ...
Après avoir séjourné 8 mois au Cameroun 2008 - 2009 ; j' ai choisi " d' essayer " d'y vivre .
J'ai obtenu un visa long séjour de 6 mois pour ouvrir un petit commerce et
j'ai plusieurs interrogations au sujet de la carte de séjour .
Quand faire la demande au bureau de l' émigration .
La carte de séjour remplace t' elle le visa ?
A l' issue des 6 mois je vais rentrer en France qq semaines et si la carte de séjour ne remplace pas le visa , les soucis vont recommencer ..nouvelle demande de visa au Consulat avec une issue aléatoire
Bonjour aucune inquiétude pour la carte de séjour si tu est commerçant cela va te couter (prix officiel mais compte la biere en plus 😎 ) 200.000CFA pour 2 ans avec ta patente ou ton libératoire on va te la faire en une minute les photos sont faites sur place ne te fait pas arnaquer par les demarcheurs de l'extérieur .. Good luck
Merci pour ta réponse rapide, j'ai une licence de 1 ere catégorie pour un bar délivrée
par une préfecture de Yaoundé et je vais acquiter l' impôt libératoire .
J'espére que tout ira bien pour la carte de séjour , juste une précision :
la carte de séjour permet de rentrer au Camerroun ou il faut à chaque fois demander un visa .
Des que tu a ton récépissé de carte séjour tu entre tu sort comme tu en a envie plus de visa bien sur .... Perso j'ai une carte de 10 ans... Avec ta licence on va te faire ta carte de séjour en plus a Yaoundé ils compliquent pas je peux te l'assurer il va te falloir 10mn maxi pour avoir ta carte en main 200.000 et 3000 pour les photos tu t'occupe meme pas de remplir le dossier c'est eux qui le font ... tu lui glissera un billet pour la biére(rire) dans 4mois environ tu aura la carte en plastique mais avec ton récépissé t'est déjà CAMEROUNAIS si si !!!!!!! et tu peux vivre au pays en toute quiétude ....
Et ainsi, encourager lea corruption, la mendicité et la bêtise chez les camerounais? Après vous serez aussi les premiers à denoncer cet état de chose...
Mon ami, faîte une demande de visa pour long séjour et passez par action visa, si vous ne pouvez pas vous déplacer. Téléchargez le formulaire sur internet. J'ai oublié le site.
Bon séjour, quel que soit l'objet, au Cameroun
un arbre ne peut avoir de branches, s'il n'a pas de racines
un visa de 4 mois pour le cameroun, je sais pas trop.
Mais si t'as pas la possibilité de te déplacer, franchement, je te conseille de passer par une agence et non pas par lettre recommandée. Je t'assure que beaucoup de personnes se sont lamentés pour avoir envoyer leurs passeports par la poste,
Personnellement, moi aussi, je me rend régulièrment en Afrique et au Cameroun dans le cadre de mon travail, et je sollicite depuis longtemps les services d'une agence appelé VISATROPICAL. Je t'assure que je n'ai jamais été déçu.
Pour ta demande de visa, je te conseillerai fortement cette agence, que tu peux aller chercher sur internet, qui s'y connait très bien en matière de demandes de visa vers l'afrique.
bonjour sisif , oui c est possible pour toi d obtenir un visas long séjours au Cameroun , si tu veux je peux t aide , il suffit juste de contacte la police des frontières ici au Cameroun et il dirons combien paye pour un visas de 4mois , bon a plus voici mon mail kentios2001@yahoo.com

Hi there,
we’re planning our trip to the North Cape this summer. We bought a new vehicle for it. Unfortunately, the registration document is still being processed, and the delay seems long—I don’t think I’ll have it in time for our departure...
I have the transfer documents, insurance in my name, and all the supporting paperwork, but not the registration document. So my question is: does the ferry company require the registration document *mandatorily* when boarding in Denmark or not?
Thanks for any insights...
Hi everyone,
I have to leave for Perth, Australia in a week, for 7 days, and I couldn’t get my international driver’s permit due to processing and delivery delays.
The information I’ve found about whether an international permit is required is contradictory. Some sources say you need one, others say you don’t.
Could anyone let me know if an international driver’s permit is necessary to rent a car in Australia (Perth), or if a French license is enough for a 7-day rental?
hi everyone,
I need to apply for a new eTA for Canada.
do I need the number from my old eTA or not?
because I can’t find my old eTA number anymore.
thanks for your replies, have a great weekend
Hi there,
I know there are similar topics here and elsewhere, but they’re a few years old, and I need an up-to-date answer to make sure I don’t throw over 1000 € out the window. Thanks for your patience.
I’m planning a trip from France to Alberta/British Columbia, and I’m unsure about which bank card to use for the security deposit with the rental company (I’m thinking of going with AVIS).
I contacted Avis Canada, and they told me a credit card is absolutely required. I asked my bank for a credit card (a *real* credit card), but they only offered me a deferred debit card.
My question: For a rental with Avis Canada, is a Gold International Mastercard deferred debit card usable for the security deposit needed to finalize the rental? Is the "CREDIT" label enough? (Some cards say "CREDIT" and others say "CARTE DE CREDIT"—seems minor, but it’s actually a big deal in how the card works.)
I’ve seen conflicting info everywhere I look... My bank says it’s *usually* okay (the deferred debit card), while Avis Canada insists it *must* be a credit card, not debit—even when I mention the deferred debit card.
I know the whole credit card concept is already confusing, and on top of that, some sites say a deferred debit card counts as a credit card, while others say it doesn’t.
Thanks to anyone who can share a recent experience!
Have a great day
Hello everyone,
Could a resident of Benin (Cotonou) kindly let me know which is the best mobile phone and internet service provider?
Thank you very much,

Hi,
I’m bringing Seresta, an anxiolytic (tranquilizer) from the benzodiazepine family,
to help me sleep.
I’ll have the prescription with me.
Will this be a problem at customs, and do I need to declare it?
Same question for antibiotics?
Thanks a bunch!
Hi everyone,
I’ll explain my situation.
Unfortunately, I lost my passport, and I only realized it two weeks before my departure for a humanitarian mission in Libya. I’m a nurse, and this mission really means a lot to me.
First, I applied for an emergency passport, but it was denied by the Val-d'Oise prefecture on the grounds that a planned humanitarian mission wasn’t considered an urgent reason.
So, I submitted a biometric passport application on July 20th. Since then, the tracking has been stuck, and the town hall can’t (or won’t) give me any clear information. Every time I call, I get a different story. The last update I received was that the passport had been produced since July 23rd with a status of "about to be shipped," but nothing since then.
I’ve managed to push my departure back to next Tuesday at the latest, but I’m starting to really panic.
Have any of you submitted an application around July 20th, especially in Val-d'Oise (95)? How long did you wait between the passport being produced and it being available at the town hall? Is it normal for this step to take this long?
This mission means so much to me. I had everything organized, and I’m also supposed to attend a friend’s wedding right after near the border.
Thanks so much to those who take the time to respond or share their experience. 😔
Can anyone tell me exactly if a passport "valid for the duration of the stay" is enough, or does it need to be valid for 6 months after the trip?
I checked the embassy’s website, but that info is missing.
Hi there,
I’ll be arriving in Seoul on November 18th after spending about a month in India.
Do you know if I’ll need to fill out any additional documents besides the e-arrival card?
Thanks in advance for your tips!
I’m a bit embarrassed because I need to travel to Quebec from February 27th to March 13th. I’m a regular visitor to Canada—this will be my 10th trip since 1997, plus a year as a permanent resident (2000–2001) and a cross-country run from Vancouver to Halifax in 2011. So, I’m definitely not a terrorist!
But since our last trip in July 2015, they’ve introduced this eTA thing. Seems more like a way to make money than to actually secure Canada, if you ask me, but anyway, that’s not the point.
I applied for an eTA for myself, my wife, and our two kids. They all got approved within hours, but not me! I was asked to create a GC key and then an IRCC account, which I did. Normally, you get news within 72 hours, but since Monday, January 15th, nothing!
In the "message" section of the account, it says "explanation letter (required)" with a deadline of January 25th, but I can’t find any explanation anywhere—despite searching the Canadian government website and Google. No links, nothing!
I’ve emailed them but haven’t heard back yet. I’m thinking of calling the Canadian embassy in Paris tomorrow. Even though I’m not stressing yet, it’d be a bummer if everyone else got to go without me!
If anyone’s had this issue before or knows what this explanation letter is about, I’d love to hear more.
hi there
I’m heading to Seoul in September, and to do that I need to get a travel authorization that we apply for through K-ETA....... turns out I can (barely, I admit) fill out the form up to the address of our "stay location," but every address I’ve entered has been rejected by the system. I’ve tried my hotel, the Lotte Hotel (which is well-known in Seoul), the airport—basically, I’ve entered at least 20 addresses, all rejected....
So, to anyone who’s successfully gotten the authorization, could you tell me which address you used to get that "elusive" approval?...
Hi there,
I’m heading to Senegal in January for a month and was wondering if I just need my French driver’s license or if I should get an international permit?
Thanks!

I’m heading to Laos next spring, but I have a question about the Thai arrival/departure form. I’ll be flying PAR-BKK, then taking the train to Laos (so exiting Thailand), and later re-entering Thailand by train to catch my return flight. Do I need to fill out two forms in this case?
Hi there,
I have a 9-seater passenger vehicle that I use for my business in Paris, transporting people.
I’m planning to go to Algeria with my family.
The vehicle registration lists my company as the owner.
Can I get a TPD (Temporary Admission Document)?
Will I need a KBis extract or a power of attorney?!?
Thanks for your help.
Worst case, I can add my personal name as a co-owner on the registration, but that would be a real shame!
Hi,
I’m writing to ask for some info—I’ve heard that you **must** have travel insurance to land in Zanzibar.
What’s the process, and which insurance should I get?
Thanks in advance for your feedback!

Hi, are there any travelers who’ve recently crossed the border between Karakalpakstan (Uzbekistan) and Beineu in Kazakhstan?
It was closed for a while.
Thanks for any info!
I bought a one-way flight (Ryanair) and a return flight (EasyJet) to spend a week in Morocco in April.
My passport expires 3 weeks after the return date.
Some websites say the passport must be valid for 3 months at the time of entry.
However, it will still be valid both on entry and return, but its validity will only be 1 month at the time of entry (and 3 weeks on the return date, everything prepaid).
It's an individual family trip.
The consulate can't give me an answer—they're still looking into it (really!)
Last year, we stayed for 3 months in Thailand, north of Khao Lak, and were able to benefit from the 2-month visa exemption, renewable for one month by going to Takua Pa to validate a 1-month extension (1,900 baht).
This year, it’s a disaster for us—not only were we planning a 4-month stay, adding a visa run in between (which some say is quite risky), but the law is apparently changing in the coming months with the return of the 1-month exemption (plus the usual 1-month option). So, we looked into applying for a 6-month multiple-entry visa, allowing a maximum of 60 consecutive days in Thailand. However, I can’t find anywhere the minimum time required outside Thailand between two stays—do any of you have an idea?
Thanks for the info! If you’d like tips on Khao Lak and the surrounding areas, we’ve got some experience, though things change fast!
Cheers,
Bruno.
My partner, our 8-year-old daughter, and I are going on vacation to Gex.
We’ve decided to spend one day in Switzerland and another in Italy. Will we need ID (national ID card or passport)? Do we also need ID for our daughter?
Hello,
We’ll soon be moving to Madagascar long-term.
As a French national, I need to obtain a short-stay visa that can be converted to a long-stay one. To do this, I have to send the required documents to the Madagascar embassy in Paris.
No issues with that procedure so far.
If I get this visa, once I arrive in Madagascar, I’ll need to provide the same documents to the Ministry of the Interior in Anosy. I’m trying to find an email address or website for the Ministry to check which documents I need to submit (I think they ask for additional ones).
If you have any info on this, I’d appreciate your replies.
Best regards,
M. Buisson Eric
I’d like to know if anyone has already applied for a private visa to Russia with an invitation from a Russian resident.
I traveled earlier this year with an e-visa, but since I want to stay longer, I’ll be visiting my friend who lives in eastern Russia.
For the visa application, does the invitation need to be on an official paper form issued by the Russian ministry? And most importantly, do I need to present the original for the application, or is there an electronic version that can be sent directly to the consulate in France?
Thanks for any info if you’ve gone through this process before!
I filled out the B2 form to apply for a visa, created an account on Atvis to pay the visa fees and schedule a meet-up, but every time I try to pay with my Boursobank Visa 1st card, they refuse the payment with a message telling me to check my details (address), even though everything is correct. Does anyone know why this is happening, or maybe they don’t accept Visa cards? Are you aware of this?
Thanks for your feedback!
Elisabeth
There are rumors going around about the ETA: it must absolutely be on your smartphone in the "ETA" app.
Paper documents might not be accepted.
Is this real or just a hoax?
Thanks, I’m leaving in 3 weeks. My passport is good to go and my ETA is still valid for a year, but I only printed the email I received.
Thanks everyone.
Hi there,
We need to apply for a B2 visa because we visited Iran in 2018. It currently costs $185, but they’re planning an additional $250 fee per person for the same visa—it’s been approved but not yet implemented. Does anyone know when this fee will take effect?
Thanks in advance!

Hi there,
In November, we're heading off on a 4-month trip. We'll be landing in China and plan to leave the country via a land border into Vietnam.
I’ve read that China may ask for proof of exit within 30 days (flight ticket or other reservation). Since we’d be leaving by land, I’m wondering how this works in practice.
Has anyone here been in this situation recently?
Did the airline ask for an exit ticket before boarding?
Did Chinese authorities require proof upon arrival?
Is a train/bus ticket to Vietnam sufficient?
Is a cancelable or flexible reservation accepted?
Hi there,
Just a question that’s probably been asked before (though usually the other way around for my situation :))
My wife and I are heading to the US.
On her ticket, it only has her maiden name (e.g., Martine DUPOND).
On her passport, it’s written as Martine DUPOND épouse AVRY.
No issues for travel, I hope I did the right thing with the ticket?
Then for the ESTA, is just Martine DUPOND enough, or do I need to include the "épouse AVRY" part like on the passport?
Thanks in advance!
Hi there,
I’m spending a few days in San Pedro de Atacama (Chile) and would like to cross the Argentine border to make a loop toward Salta and then return to Chile to drop off the rental car.
I’ve heard that crossing the border can be tricky!
Is it possible with a rental company’s authorization? Which company, and at what cost?
Thanks for sharing your experiences!
Best regards,
Arnale
I saw on the French Embassy in Peru’s website and the Peruvian Consulate in Paris’s site that the rule is to have a passport valid for 6 months *after the arrival date* (not the return date).
I arrive in Peru on August 13, 2019 (for about twelve days), and my passport is valid until February 16, 2020.
That’s 6 months and 3 days after my arrival date in Peru. In my opinion, I’m good to go.
But could I still be denied entry if they say I don’t cover the return date or that I’m too close to the 6-month mark?
I read on the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs website that it’s possible to apply for a temporary driving permit in China, valid for 1 month.
I’m planning to rent a car (without a driver) to explore part of the country next August, so I was wondering:
Has anyone here already gone through this process upon arrival?
How long do the formalities take on the spot?
Is it possible to handle these steps in advance, before arriving in China?
