Visas for Chad
![]() |
HOW TO APPLY
Visas are required by South African passport holders and must be obtained prior to arrival. As Chad does not have either diplomatic or consular representatives in South Africa, SA passport holders wishing to travel to the country have to apply for a visa en route. The most convenient country in which to do this is Ethiopia, as one of the most direct routes from Johannesburg to N’djamena [the capital of Chad] is on Ethiopian airlines via Addis Ababa, where Chad does have an embassy.
WHAT TO SUBMIT
