The application journey involves a series of data entry steps where personal information and travel intent are disclosed. Unlike traditional methods, there is no requirement to post physical documents. Instead, digital copies are uploaded directly. It is important to review the necessary criteria before starting to ensure all materials are ready.
The authorisation granted via this system is typically intended for short-term stays. Whether the purpose is a holiday or visiting relatives, the duration allowed is determined by the authorities at the time of review. Comoros citizens should plan their itinerary within the general limits of a standard tourist visit to avoid overstaying.

The digital photograph is a critical component of the file. It must be a recent portrait, captured in colour against a plain, light background. Shadows on the face or busy backgrounds can lead to a request for a new image, which may prolong the overall wait time.
Applicants must ensure that every character entered matches their Comorian passport exactly. This includes middle names, birth dates, and the passport serial number. Discrepancies between the digital record and the physical document can result in boarding denials at the airport.
Both a mandatory government fee and a service fee are applicable. These costs are required to initiate the review process. Regarding timing, the duration of the check varies significantly based on individual circumstances and current application volumes. Checking the fee structure beforehand is recommended.
No, this specific authorisation is strictly for non-employment purposes such as tourism or family visits.
