- German passports
- Motorcycles with Carnet de Passage

Got the visa same day (multiple entry, 1 month). Cost 75.000 CFA (60k plus 15k for express-service). Need to bring:
- 2 passport photos
- Passport plus Copy
- Togo Visa plus Copy
- Vaccination Certificate Yellow Fever plus Copy
- Copy Carnet de Passage
- Carte Grise (aka motorcycle passport) plus copy
- Proof of sufficient funds (eg. balance of bank account, preferably very up to date)

Recommend to go there rather early. We were there at 9:30 and got our visa at 15:30. Don’t be surprised when they take your cell phone at the entrance, you will get it back.

There is a very friendly copyshop (it is more of a small library belonging to an NGO) 2 minutes north inside a court same side as the embassy. They have WiFi and can also print out docs you send them.

This is the worst embassy experience we had so far! First they are extremely strict. Then when adding your date of entry; this has to be the date you're entering the country!!! I asked the lady very clearly as we filled out our application forms if the entry date matters because we are coming by car and we may arrive before and we may arrive after that date. The person behind the desk told us no problem... But when we came next day the visa states the exact date of entry, and we believe we will arrive before that date now so we've got a big problem. And this is the only African visa so far where you can't arrive before that date... All the other just state that they are valid to be used within 1/2/3 months... So this was new to us. After explaining our case and telling them that the lady told us it doesn't matter, they still didn't help us a bit!! We even asked to pay for a new visa but then they wanted a express fee on top of that again.

Everything else is still as stated.

A one month single entry visa costs 50.000CFA (76,20€) and can be picked up the following afternoon. For an extra 15.000CFA (23€) they issue it on the same day. Applications have to be handed in between 8 and 11:30 on weekdays. 2 passport photos (white background), passport copy, Togo visa copy, yellow fever certificate copy and hotel reservation (e.g. booking.com, can usually be cancelled free of charge) are necessary and you have to fill out one application form. Date of entry can be chosen freely.
