Yes, you must print your Rwanda eVisa approval letter, and we recommend printing at least two copies to bring with you while traveling.
What You Need to Know
Rwandan authorities require travelers to carry a printed copy of the eVisa approval letter when entering the country. The barcode on the approval letter helps immigration officers quickly verify and approve your entry. While keeping a digital copy is useful, it does not replace the requirement to show a printed version at the border.
Our Recommendation
Always carry at least two printed copies of your Rwanda eVisa approval letter along with your passport. If you applied through sherpa°, your approval letter will be sent to your email once approved. Print it as soon as you receive it to avoid last-minute stress.
A Quick Tip
Keep one printed copy in your carry-on bag and another in your checked luggage, and store a digital backup in your email or mobile device. This ensures you’re covered if one copy is lost or damaged.
