US passport holders need a visa to enter Cape Verde. The easiest option is the eVisa, applied for at ease.gov.cv. The single-entry tourist eVisa costs EUR 32 (about $35) and allows stays up to 30 days. Processing takes 1 to 5 working days. Upload a passport scan, a recent photo, proof of accommodation, and a return ticket. Passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond the date of entry with at least 2 blank pages. A separate airport security tax of CVE 3,400 (about $34) is collected on departure or can be prepaid during the eVisa application.
Cape Verde also issues visas on arrival at Amílcar Cabral International Airport (SID) on Sal and Nelson Mandela International Airport (RAI) on Santiago for EUR 32 plus the airport tax. Lines can be long during peak season (November to April), so the eVisa saves time. For stays beyond 30 days, apply for an extension at the local immigration office (Direcção de Estrangeiros e Fronteiras) in Praia or on whichever island you are staying.
