Tourist and business eVisa
Eswatini's government eVisa portal offers tourist and business eVisas for nationals of countries that need a visa. Citizens of countries not on the visa-required list do not need to apply. The eVisa is single entry, valid 90 days from issue, and allows a stay of up to 30 days. Stays over 30 days, study or work need a Temporary Residence Permit instead.
