How Long Does it Take to Get Cape
Verde Visas
Typically Cape Verde processes visas in 2-4 business days - remember
if we are shipping your visa back to you we will need an extra day
for shipping.
The processing time of your visa is at the consulate's
discretion. Although 90% of the visas are done in the 4 day time
frame - the consulate does maintain the right to hold applications
while waiting for approval from it's ministry of foreign affairs,
or while conducting background checks. For that reason we always
recommend that applicant's give themselves another few days to process
their visas. When the consulate requires special approval they can
take 2 week - 4 weeks to process the visa, that would be out of
ItsEasy's control.

How Long Are Cape Verde Visas Valid
Multiple entry valid for 5 years from the date of issue - BUT the
FIRST entry must be made within 90 days of the visa's issue date
for the visa to remain valid. Single entry visas are usually valid
for 3 to 6 months from the visas issue date. The embassy can grant
a visa with different restrictions - the conditions of your visa
will be written right on the visa stamp.
