Under the agreements concluded between Cameroon and the member states of the Central African Economic and Monetary Community (CEMAC) as well as with Switzerland, these countries have benefited from a visa exemption to stay in Cameroon.<\/p>\n

Reminder on CEMAC and its objective<\/h2>\n

Created in 1994, the Central African Economic and Monetary Community (CEMAC)<\/strong> aims to promote economic and monetary integration among its member countries. CEMAC is made up of two main institutions:<\/p>\n

\n
• the Central African Monetary Union, responsible for managing the CFA franc, the common currency of member countries;<\/li>\n
• the Central African Economic Union, which aims to harmonize regulations within member states in order to facilitate trade and the convergence of economic policies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  CEMAC member countries benefiting from visa exemption<\/h3>\n

  Nationals of CEMAC member countries \u2013 i.e. Congo\ud83c\udde8\ud83c\uddec<\/strong>, THE Gabon\ud83c\uddec\ud83c\udde6<\/strong>, there Equatorial Guinea\ud83c\uddec\ud83c\uddf6<\/strong>, there Central African Republic\ud83c\udde8\ud83c\uddeb<\/strong> and the Chad\ud83c\uddf9\ud83c\udde9<\/strong> \u2013 are now exempt from visa to enter Cameroon.

  In addition to CEMAC countries, Swiss citizens holders of an official passport<\/span> will also benefit from this visa exemption. This measure facilitates travel between these countries and encourages economic and cultural exchanges.<\/p>\n
