Het belangrijkste
- Check current health entry measures if recently in affected African countries.

Inreis en visa
UK guidance permits British tourism or business visits up to 180 days. The shared CA-4 allowance is different: normally 90 days across the region, and crossing borders does not reset it. Confirm your authorised stay with immigration. Check current Ebola-related entry measures after recent travel in affected African countries.
Geldigheid paspoort: British passports: at least 6 months beyond arrival.
