\nInternations Restrictions:
\n *Entry to Cameroon: There are multiple commercial flight options to enter and leave Cameroon. Access across Cameroon\u2019s land and sea borders is currently restricted due to COVID-19.
\nTravel requirements to enter and exit Cameroon can change without notice and without proactive communication. The Centre for the Coordination of Public Health Emergency Operations conditions of entry and exit to Cameroon website is the best source of the latest information.
\nIf you have proof of your COVID-19 vaccination, you are no longer required to present a negative PCR test to enter Cameroon.
\nIf you do not have proof of your COVID-19 vaccination, you must provide a recent (no older than 72 hours before first boarding) negative coronavirus PCR test to board your flight to Cameroon and to enter at Yaound\u00e9 or Douala Airports.
\nThe Government of Cameroon demands a negative Coronavirus PCR test from all travellers aged five and above if you are not vaccinated against COVID-19. (Some airlines demand a PCR test from travellers aged two and above, so check with your airline.)
\nNegative coronavirus test results should be in PDF format, clearly stating the date of the test and the type of test. Electronic copies are accepted. You should arrange to take a private test.
\nTesting/screening on arrival: All international travellers are subjected to rapid flow testing for Coronavirus on arrival at Yaound\u00e9 and Douala international airports. These tests are compulsory. Results are returned while passengers are at the airport. There is no fee.\n*Quarantine requirements: If you have a proof of a recent (no older than 72 hours before boarding) negative coronavirus test, you will normally not have to self-isolate. Anyone that has developed symptoms of Coronavirus on their travel or tests positive on arrival at Yaound\u00e9 or Douala airport will be held for further enquiries to trace contacts and movements. We believe that anyone testing positive can quarantine at the location of your host or private accommodation until a negative PCR test is produced. These requirements are regularly evolving.
\nExit requirements: Negative PCR certificates are no longer required for all passengers leaving Cameroon, and are only necessary if it is the requirement of your country of destination. Call 1506 for any complaints regarding airport checks.
\nIf you require a PCR test to leave Cameroon, you will be charged a standard rate of FCFA 30,000. You can request and pay for a test online . You can also pay in-person at various sites including: the National Public Health Laboratory in Yaound\u00e9, the Laquintinie Hospital in Douala and the Regional Hospital Centre in Garoua. For further information on the testing process, you should call 1510. Your country of destination or transit may have other requirements.
\nTravellers leaving Cameroon are frequently asked for their Yellow Fever certificate as they pass through security. You should carry it with you as you pass through the airport.
