—Yellow Fever Vaccination Certificate (Mandatory for entry)
—Proof of accommodation (luxury hotel reservation)

Important Tips

•The Yellow Fever certificate is strictly enforced; you may be denied entry or forced to vaccinate at the airport without it.
•While Visa on Arrival is possible, the queues at Lomé airport can be slow. The E-Visa allows you to use the expedited immigration lane.
•Ensure you arrange an airport transfer through your luxury hotel in Lomé, as local taxi negotiation can be chaotic.
•Have Euros or West African CFA Francs on hand for small airport tips or immediate expenses if arriving without an E-Visa.

Togo, a slender strip of West African beauty, is a land of vibrant markets, palm-fringed coastlines, and deeply rooted spiritual traditions. From the bustling Grand Marché and the unique Fetish Market in its capital, Lomé, to the rolling green hills of Kpalimé and the UNESCO-listed Tamberma valley with its iconic mud tower-houses, Togo offers an authentic and diverse West African experience. Known for its hospitality, vibrant voodoo culture, and pristine beaches along Lake Togo and the Atlantic, it is a destination that captures the heart with its rhythms and timeless landscapes.
