Entry rules for Cameroon passport holders

Cameroonian citizens must obtain a visa before traveling to Israel. Applications generally go through a Israel embassy or consulate and require a completed form, passport photos, proof of accommodation and onward travel, and sometimes travel insurance. Start the process several weeks before your planned trip, as processing times vary.

Entry rules can change at short notice. Always confirm current requirements with the official Israel immigration authority or your nearest embassy before booking.

How this compares

The Cameroonian passport ranks #173 worldwide, opening 48 destinations without a visa arranged in advance (20 visa-free, 26 with a visa on arrival and 2 with an eTA). Israel is not among them — it is one of the 105 destinations that still require an embassy visa or an application before departure.

In the other direction, Israeli citizens traveling to Cameroon face a different rule: e-visa.

Western Asia is closed to spontaneous travel for Cameroonian passport holders: none of its 17 destinations can be entered without an application first.
