AGP Executive Report
Last update: 8 hours agoVisa Openness in Focus: Togo has just removed visa requirements for all African nationals holding a valid passport, with stays of up to 30 days now allowed (effective May 18). Entry Rules Still Apply: travellers must still meet immigration, security and public health checks, and complete a travel declaration at least 24 hours before arrival to get a travel slip. Regional Momentum: Togo becomes the sixth African country to move toward full or near full visa-free access for Africans, following Ghana’s similar shift tied to Africa Day. Anti-Corruption Push: In Kigali, APNAC chair Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin urged Africans to intensify action against corruption and illicit financial flows, citing losses of about $88.6bn a year that could otherwise support healthcare, education and social protection. Health Angle: the latest items don’t report new local health outbreaks, but they do flag public health requirements at borders as visa-free travel expands.
