Angola visa for Bangladeshis

Angola's official e-visa portal is evisa.ao (it replaced smevisa.gov.ao). The portal lists a group of countries whose citizens can enter visa-free for tourism for up to 30 days per entry and 90 days per year; Bangladesh was not in the list we could see, so Bangladeshi ordinary passport holders should expect to need a visa. The portal page we read does not say whether Bangladeshi nationals can use the e-visa, and it shows no fee amounts. Fees, the Bangladesh rule and embassy details are therefore marked for confirmation. The UK government advises against all but essential travel to Cabinda Province (except Cabinda city) and within 1km of the DR Congo border in Lunda Norte. Last checked 6 November 2026.

Quick answer: Security advisory: UK FCDO advises against all but essential travel to Cabinda Province (except Cabinda city) and within 1km of the DR Congo border in Lunda Norte (excluding official crossings).. Visa needed?: Bangladesh was not in the visa-exempt list visible on evisa.ao, so a visa is likely needed; the page does not name Bangladesh. Confirm.. Confirm before you pay.

Security warning

Official source checked
  • The UK government advises against all but essential travel to Cabinda Province, except Cabinda city, because of separatist attacks and kidnap risk, and within 1km of the DR Congo border in Lunda Norte Province. Travel Counsellor Ltd. does not recommend travel against official advice.

How to apply

Official source checked
  • Angola moved its e-visa system to evisa.ao, which offers personal accounts, online payment and application tracking. The portal covers tourism and business visas. It does not say whether Bangladeshi nationals can apply online. If online application is not open to you, apply at an Angolan embassy; the nearest we found is New Delhi (listing details are unverified). Do not pay third-party websites that imitate the portal.

Processing time

Official source checked
  • The portal shows 72 hours processing. Embassy applications can take longer; ask the mission and apply well ahead of travel.

Total cost

Confirm with our office
  • Government fee: the portal says payment is made online but lists no amounts, and third-party figures conflict (about 60 to 120 USD quoted by unofficial sites). Travel Counsellor Ltd. service charges, if any, are quoted separately in BDT by our office.
