When is the best time to apply for my Benin visa?
The best time to apply for your Benin visa is 1-2 months before your travel date. However, if you are running short on time, we may be able to process your visa on a faster service at the Embassy’s discretion. -
Do I have to send you my passport to get a Benin visa? Is it safe to send a passport?
