The Togolese government has removed visa requirements for citizens of all African countries.
It will now allow holders of valid African passports to enter the country without a visa for stays of up to 30 days — the latest attempt by African countries to ease movement across the continent.
The country’s Minister of Security, Calixte Madjoulba, disclosed in a statement on Monday that the decision is aimed at deepening regional integration and boosting cross-border cooperation on the continent.
Mr Madjoulba linked the new directive, which took effect on Sunday, to the country’s commitment to regional integration and Pan-African cooperation.
He said the policy is part of Togo’s broader agenda to strengthen the free movement of people and goods across Africa.
