Layover in Libreville turned out easier than expected once I understood the process. My connection had a long gap, so I needed to leave the terminal and switch transport before continuing onward. Applying for the Transit eVisa for Gabon ahead of time meant I could step outside the airport without worrying about paperwork at the last minute. The requirements were straightforward just my passport bio page and a recent photo, nothing overly complicated. evisa-gabon
What stood out was the flexibility. Travelers switching from air to road transport, or simply wanting to explore during a stopover, are covered under this option. I chose a rush processing window since my layover wasn't long, and everything came through by email well before departure. Extending isn't something I needed, but knowing it's possible through DGDI in Libreville gave extra peace of mind for anyone whose plans shift mid-trip.
