What you need

  • Czech ordinary passport valid for at least six months for the eVisa/arrival date
  • Approved Gabon eVisa / ETA receipt before travel
  • Passport data-page copy uploaded with the application
  • Colour passport photograph taken within the previous six months, 35 x 45 mm
  • Arrival by air through Leon Mba International Airport in Libreville
  • Funds or payment method for the visa and processing charges
  • Purpose, accommodation and return/onward travel evidence requested by the application or border authority

Why this verdict

Czech ordinary-passport holders use Gabon's official eVisa route because the live passport-type exemption catalog does not list this nationality as ordinary-passport exempt. The eVisa is valid only for entry by air through Leon Mba International Airport in Libreville. The live application, DGDI and the issued ETA remain controlling for the exact traveller.

Conditional rules

  • Traveller does not enter by air through Leon Mba International Airport in Libreville Visa required

    The official portal limits the eVisa to this airport entry route. Confirm a mission-issued visa or other DGDI procedure for land, sea or another airport.

  • The live eVisa flow returns a different result for the nationality, document, purpose, duration or route Conditional

    The current application response and issued ETA control over this planning summary.

  • Diplomatic, service, special or another non-ordinary travel document Conditional

    The DGDI exemption catalog is passport-type specific and can produce a different outcome for these documents.

  • Work, residence, settlement, study or another non-short-visit purpose Visa required

    The eVisa portal directs people wishing to settle in Gabon to the separate DGDI terms and conditions.

  • Required passport validity, ETA receipt, uploads, payment or travel evidence is missing Conditional

    The portal and MFA publish these application or general-entry conditions; an incomplete file can prevent issuance, boarding or admission.

  • Transit through Gabon Conditional

    The reviewed official pages do not publish a universal airside-transfer waiver. Confirm the exact itinerary with the carrier and DGDI.
