Togo e-Visa (tourist/business) via Togo Voyage
Togo issues visit visas online only, through the government's Togo Voyage platform. Visas on arrival and express visas are suspended until further notice. Standard processing takes up to 5 working days, so apply well before travel. The platform says all African nationals with a valid passport can enter visa-free for up to 30 days, after filling in the online immigration form at least 24 hours before arrival.
