Senegal visa for British passport holders
British passport holders don't need a visa for Senegal
Visa-free stays are up to 90 days. Longer stays, work and study usually need a visa.
Heads up: We haven't found a confirmed official e-visa website for Senegal, and at least one site that looks like one (visasenegal.sn) is an unrelated parked domain. Confirm with a Senegalese embassy before paying anyone.
What you'll typically need
- A passport valid for at least six months from the day you arrive, with blank pages
- Proof of onward or return travel
- A yellow fever vaccination certificate — many African countries ask for it, especially if you've been in an affected country
Typical requirements, not a guarantee — the destination decides.
Individual passport results come from Passport Index data as of February 2026. Faylo hasn't yet checked Senegal against its government's own site. Rules change, so always check the official source before you pay or book. Faylo is not an embassy or immigration adviser.

Questions
Do British citizens need a visa for Senegal?
British passport holders don't need a visa for Senegal. Visa-free stays are up to 90 days. Longer stays, work and study usually need a visa. Confirm on the embassy or immigration website before you pay or book, because entry rules change.
Should I use an agent to get a Senegal visa?
Only if you want someone to handle the paperwork for you. Government fees are the same whether or not you use an agent, and agents add their own fee on top — sometimes more than the visa itself. Check that the government fee is listed separately and avoid agents who ask for payment to a personal account.
