The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation has announced that UAE citizens holding diplomatic, special and ordinary passports can now travel to the Central African Republic, CAR, without the need for pre-entry visas. The decision will come into effect as of 8th October, 2019.

He added that the newly effective agreement demonstrates the strength of relations between the UAE and the Central African Republic, which were founded on the spirit of mutual understanding and respect, and in line with the aspirations and directives of the leadership of both countries to further develop relations that will contribute to mutual goals and interests.

Al Mazrouei said this agreement reflect positively on tourism, trade, investment and other sectors, which, in turn, will further promote the cooperative bonds between the two countries.

The visa waiver is the result of diplomatic efforts by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation to enhance the UAE's position globally.
