FAQ

Visas for Burundi citizens

Where can Burundi passport holders go visa-free?
Visa-free: 22 countries and territories, including Barbados, Benin, Central African Republic, Cook Islands, Dominica and DR Congo. In 1 more country, an electronic travel authorisation is enough โ€” it takes a few minutes online.
Where can you stay the longest without a visa?
The longest stays: Rwanda โ€” 180 days, Barbados โ€” 90 days, Benin โ€” 90 days and Central African Republic โ€” 90 days.
How accurate is this, and how often is it updated?
The reference is updated weekly and cross-checked against two independent sources; where they disagree, the country is marked โ€œReferences disagreeโ€. Only the destination country can confirm its rules โ€” check its official website or embassy before you travel.
What is an electronic travel authorisation versus an e-visa?
An electronic travel authorisation (ETA, ESTA and the like) is a short online form, usually approved within minutes to days. An e-visa is a full visa, but you apply and pay online without visiting a consulate.
