Benin 30-Day eVisa: Single or Multiple Entry?

The 30-day Benin eVisa comes in two forms. One is for a single arrival; the other is for travellers who need to leave Benin and return during the same validity period.

Two different 30-day products

Benin publishes a 30-day single-entry eVisa for €50 and a 30-day multiple-entry eVisa for €75.

Both use the same 30-day validity choice, but they differ in whether the traveller can re-enter Benin during that period.

When single entry makes sense

A single uninterrupted stay with one arrival is the clearest use case for single entry.

If the itinerary leaves Benin for another country and returns, the single-entry option may no longer fit even when the whole trip is short.

When multiple entry earns its extra cost

Multiple entry is useful because of route structure, not because it is automatically “better.”

Look for a second Benin arrival in the itinerary. If one exists, that is a concrete reason to consider the multiple-entry option.
