2. Make money order or bank check for the amount of your visa.
3. 1-4 passport sized photographs (on country basis).
4. A copy of your yellow fever vaccination card.
5. A copy of your flight itinerary.
6. Self addressed envelope (the embassy will use to post your visa and passport to you).
7. A letter of invitation letter from Blue-Med Africa.
8. Two contacts details of Blue-Med stuff/host family. Please contact Blue-Med for contact information.
9. If under 18 years old, a letter of consent from a parent or guardian.
Note: The processing of visa application normally takes about three weeks. However, you can apply for expedited visas which are processed in a shorter amount of time. Visa applicants must include their passport in their application since visas are inserted into the passport.
