🇨🇮 Ivory Coast visa requirements for Turkmen citizens

eTA required

Turkmen citizens need an electronic travel authorization (eTA) for Ivory Coast — a quick online approval, not a full visa.

Entry rules for Turkmenistan passport holders

Ivory Coast requires Turkmen visitors to register online for an electronic travel authorization before departure. An eTA is lighter than a visa — approval is usually issued within minutes to hours — but airlines will deny boarding without it, so complete it before heading to the airport.

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

How this compares

The Turkmen passport ranks #166 worldwide, opening 50 destinations without a visa arranged in advance (15 visa-free, 33 with a visa on arrival and 2 with an eTA). Ivory Coast is one of them.

This is not reciprocal — traveling the other way, Ivorian citizens need to arrange entry to Turkmenistan in advance (visa required).
