A Cape Verde EASE is the mandatory pre-arrival registration system that all travelers must complete before entering Cape Verde. It is not a visa but an online travel authorization required for most visitors.
What You Need to Know
The EASE (Electronic Authorization for Safe Entry) is designed to simplify border procedures and enhance security. Travelers submit their personal and travel information online before arriving in Cape Verde. Upon arrival, immigration officials use this pre-registered data to process entry more efficiently.
Who Needs It
Most foreign travelers are required to complete an EASE application before travel, even if they are visa-exempt. Some travelers, such as Cape Verdean citizens or long-term residents, may be exempt.
How It Works
Apply online through sherpa° at any time before your trip.
The application must be submitted at least 7 business days before your arrival.
Once approved, your EASE is linked electronically to your passport, so you simply present your passport on arrival.
A Quick Tip
Make sure the details you provide on your EASE application match your passport exactly. Any errors may cause delays or entry issues at the border.
