Gabon Visa for US citizens (2026)

Can US citizens get a Gabon eVisa?

Gabon grants online eligibility to US citizens across 8 visa options such as Tourist Evisa (Single Entry for 1 month), Tourist Evisa (Multiple Entries for 6 months), Tourist Evisa (Single Entry for 2 months). Gabon currently supports Single Entry or Multiple Entries, with a permitted stay of 30 days or 180 days. Government fees range from US$99.00 to US$212.00, depending on the visa type. Standard processing is typically 3 working days, with faster options around 5 hours.

Documents and tips for American travellers

US passports are issued for 10 years to adults, but many destinations still require at least six months of remaining validity beyond your arrival date, so check your expiry before applying. Government and service fees are charged in US dollars, so American applicants rarely face a currency-conversion surprise at checkout. The most common avoidable mistake for US citizens: assuming that holding a strong US passport means visa-free entry everywhere — many destinations still require an eVisa even from American citizens.

• Use the exact name printed in your US passport, not a nickname or a maiden name from older documents.
• A visa waiver or ESTA-style program for entering the United States does not carry over abroad — an eVisa is a separate requirement.
• Keep your approval both printed and saved offline, since US travelers are frequently asked to show it at the gate before a long-haul flight.
