Can you buy a visa in Africa?

Question

My boyfriend says that he can buy a visa for visitor visa in Africa. is this true or is he just fruntin?

Answer 1

You will not be able to buy a Genuine Visa anywhere in the world.

You will be able to apply for a visa to the relevant consulate/embassy in your region. Its purely the consulate/embassy's discreation to grant/refuse a visa.

If you are offered with a visa by paying money, you can take it granted that "IT IS FAKE" & you may be caught at the immigration check.

Answer 2

Probably fruntin.  Each nation in Africa has its own visa regime.  For some countries, it's only a matter of paying for the visa, for others, you have to go through a long application process.  Check out the country information sheets on www.travel.state.gov for information on each country in Africa.

Answer 3

Some countries offer visas at the port of entry.  You fill out the form, pay the fee and get the visa on the spot.

Answer 4

If you have seen a visa recently, I would say he is a liar. They are very difficult to get and nearly forge proof, at least a US visa is...also they have lists of who was granted visas, they can easily tell a fake by scanning it at a border control point, so I would say he is a definitive liar.
