Entente council states introduce single visa

Abidjan- Cote d'Ivoire (PANA) -- Five West African countries in the Entente Council have officially introduced a common tourist visa to facilitate easy movement of tourists within their areas.
According to a statement issued in Abidjan this week, the common visa was already available in the embassies of Benin, Burkina Faso, Cote d'Ivoire, Niger and Togo in various parts of the world.
The visa, which costs 30 Euros or 20,000 FCFA, enables travellers to visit the Entente Council member states without having to obtain separate entry documents for each country.
