How to apply

What entry costs

Compulsory government charges only. Service fees and anything optional are excluded, which is what makes the figure comparable.

Yellow fever certificate

Arriving from Turkey, no yellow fever certificate is required: WHO does not list Turkey as a transmission risk. It can still be demanded if you have been in a risk country shortly before arriving.

Driving on a Turkey license

Cabo Verde and Turkey are both party to the 1968 Vienna Convention, so an International Driving Permit issued in Turkey is one Cabo Verde is bound to recognize.

Whether a permit is required alongside your national license is set by national road law, which we have not checked for this pair.
