Business Visa for Algeria

If you are planning to meet business partners in Algeria, attend trade fairs, visit customers, or explore new professional fields, the business visa is your entry permit for the African state and your ticket to the Algerian economy. Without a visa that corresponds to your purpose of travel, a business trip to Algeria is not possible. The reason for this is the visa requirement for foreign travelers.

Important: A business visa for Algeria can be applied for no earlier than 30 days before the start of your trip. However, you can submit your application documents to us at any time, even earlier.

The basic requirement for obtaining a business visa, in addition to the usual application documents such as passport, passport photo, etc., is an official invitation from Algeria. This invitation is usually received from your Algerian business partner, a hosting organization, or an inviting company. The following content and format requirements apply to the invitation letter:

• Personal data of the invited applicant (passport data)
• Reason for the business trip
• Written language: French or Arabic
• Stamp and signature of the inviting company
• Legibility of all data

Invitation letters (English: Visa Support Letter) from higher authorities such as ministries or government agencies are also acceptable. For more information on the invitation letter, please inquire with your Algerian contact person or the Algerian representations in Germany or your home country.

If you wish to obtain a business visa, you are required to submit an official visa application at the Algerian Embassy or the Algerian Consulate General. The submission of the application documents is only possible in person or through an accredited visa agency such as Apply-for-your-visa.com. The competent consular departments categorically reject visa applications sent via courier or mail. Please note that the Algerian foreign missions only accept complete, digitally and correctly filled out application forms. Subsequent handwritten changes are not allowed and will result in the rejection of the application. The same applies in case of missing or invalid documents.

Notes: The embassy and consulate decide individually on the validity of the visa and the allowed duration of the trip for each applicant. The decisive criterion is usually the data in the invitation.
