Focused Benin visa guide
Benin lets applicants choose a 30-day or 90-day validity period. The start date is tied to the intended date of entry entered in the application, which makes date accuracy a practical visa requirement.
Benin’s FAQ says the start of eVisa validity is the intended entry date entered in the application.
That is why the arrival date should be taken from the actual itinerary, particularly when overnight travel changes the calendar date.
Applicants choose a 30-day or 90-day validity period. The 30-day option is published as either single or multiple entry; the 90-day option is published as multiple entry.
Validity and entry type answer different questions: how long the authorization runs and how many times it can be used to enter.
Benin states that the automated eVisa cannot normally be modified after issue.
If travel dates materially change before submission, correct them first. If they change after issue, re-check what the authorization actually permits rather than guessing.
For passport-specific guidance, return to the nationality hub. If your trip details are settled and a visa is required, continue to the application.
