CAF Announces Free Electronic Visas For AFCON Morocco 2025 Supporters
The Confederation of African Football (CAF) and the African Cup of Nations (AFCON) Morocco 2025 Local Organising Committee have announced that fans attending the tournament will be eligible for free electronic visas. In a statement released on Friday, CAF confirmed that citizens of countries that normally require a visa to enter Morocco will benefit from the initiative. Electronic visas for supporters attending the tournament, scheduled from December 21, 2025, to January 18, 2026, can now be obtained free of charge through the YALLA app. The announcement comes as global interest in Africa’s biggest football event continues to grow, with more fans booking tickets through CAF’s official ticketing platform. CAF emphasized that a Fan ID is mandatory for entry into all stadiums and official fan zones. “CAF supporters can apply for both the Fan ID and e-visa in one place inside the YALLA app, streamlining travel and stadium access. The Fan ID application and e-visa request are completed seamlessly within the app, ensuring a faster, easier, and secure experience for international and local fans alike,” the statement added. To apply, fans are required to download the YALLA app via Google Play or the App Store, or visit the YALLA website, complete the Fan ID form, and submit the e-visa request if applicable. Once approved, supporters can purchase match tickets on the CAF ticketing platform. CAF explained that the new measures are aimed at providing a smooth and secure experience for fans across nine stadiums in six host cities. “CAF, with support from the LOC, reaffirms its commitment to delivering a world-class spectator experience throughout Africa’s greatest football celebration,” the statement read. So far, 298,000 tickets have been sold in the first two phases of sales, with buyers from 33 African countries and 106 nations worldwide.
