Attachment 7 - Freetown Site Access Information

1. Travelers to Freetown will need a visa. An e-visa is available on the official Sierra Leone Immigration eVisa Website https://www.evisa.sl. Do not use any of the commercial alternatives. And, although a visa-on-arrival is said to be available, do not count on it; you might not be able to board the airplane.

1. Travelers must also have a current yellow fever immunization card.

1. There are two fees that require US currency upon arrival: a $25 USD Airport Security Fee must be paid before leaving the terminal (you will need to pay another one upon departure). Then there is the boat ticket. They will need to take the “Water Taxi” from the airport side of the bay to the Freetown side. It costs $45 USD. Be sure to have this cash on hand in crisp, new US bills (not a joke). They won’t accept any bill with a tear or a blemish on it. For the boat ticket, buy a one-way ticket only, as you can get a discount for the return fare when purchasing at the Embassy.

1. It is recommended to submit traveler names as quickly as possible to ensure the processing can begin.

1. Submit eCC requests to Joseph Bernard (BernardJG@state.gov) and Ryan Edwards (EdwardsRC@state.gov) as soon as possible but please no later than August 3.
