Can I apply for a visa 10 days before the trip?

Hello, I would like to know if I can apply for my visa 10 days before my trip?

Welcome @Alexandra02

Where are you planning to apply for your visa? We’ve had students who obtained their student visa just two days after applying in Yaoundé, for example. However, in Douala, we’ve had students for whom the process took over 2 months.

Now, the processing times for a student visa application vary greatly depending on several criteria.

My advice: Apply for your visa as soon as possible. If you only have 10 days, I advise you to request a late entry authorisation to add to your application.

Keep us informed of the outcome.

I will submit my application in Yaoundé
