US passport holders need a visa to enter Cameroon. Apply at the Cameroon Embassy in Washington, D.C. or the Consulate in Houston before departure. Required documents include a completed application form, two passport photos, a return ticket, proof of accommodation, a yellow fever vaccination certificate, and the visa fee of $171 for a single-entry tourist visa (valid for up to 90 days). Passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond the date of entry. Processing takes 5 to 10 working days.
There is no eVisa or visa on arrival for US nationals. The embassy visa is the only path. Yellow fever vaccination is mandatory and the certificate is checked at immigration at Douala (DLA) or Yaounde Nsimalen (NSI) airports. Bring a printed copy of your visa approval along with your passport. Some travelers report that having a hotel reservation confirmation printed speeds up the immigration process.
