Do I need a visa for Niger?
It depends on your passport. The table above covers the passports most Faylo travellers hold; use the checker for any other. Whatever the result, confirm it on Niger's embassy or immigration website before you pay or book.
Where do I apply for a Niger visa?
Use the Niger embassy or consulate in your country, or the government's immigration website. We don't have a confirmed official link for Niger yet, so avoid sites that aren't a government address.
How long before I travel should I apply?
Allow more time than you think you need: online approvals can take days, and embassy visas can take weeks. Start at least a few weeks before you fly, and don't buy non-refundable flights until you have the approval.
