Cape Verde Tourist Visa
You won’t find it really hard to get a tourist visa for Cape Verde. Despite the lack of quick to access visa information on the web for this beautiful island country, the steps are pretty easy.
A Cape Verde tourist visa can be obtained at the different Cape Verdean Embassies and Consulates around the world. Note that, if you do not have a diplomatic representation in your country of residence (either an embassy or a consulate), you can apply for a visa at the airport upon your arrival in Cape Verde. You will normally be granted a stay of 30 days with the option to extend for 90 days (a pretty easy process) once in Cape Verde.
I’ll explain below the simple steps on how to get the Cape Verde Tourist Visa.
