The Confederation of African Football (CAF), in partnership with the AFCON Morocco 2025 Local Organising Committee, has announced that fans attending next year’s continental tournament will now be able to obtain free electronic visas.
The initiative applies to citizens of countries that typically require a visa to enter Morocco.
According to a statement published on CAF’s website, supporters travelling for the competition—which runs from 21 December 2025 to 18 January 2026—can access the complimentary e-visa through the YALLA app.
CAF noted that the decision comes as global interest in Africa’s premier football tournament continues to rise, with ticket purchases increasing across several countries.
To gain entry into Morocco and access match venues, fans must secure two key documents: a Fan ID and an electronic visa.
“The Fan ID is compulsory for entry into all stadiums and designated Fan Zones. Both the Fan ID and e-visa applications can be completed within the YALLA app, offering a simplified process for travellers,” the statement explained.
The governing body added that the integrated system ensures faster, more secure, and user-friendly processing for both international supporters and local attendees.
Fans can begin the process by downloading the YALLA app via Google Play or the App Store, or by visiting the official YALLA website. After completing the Fan ID form, applicants who require a visa can then submit their e-visa request through the same platform.
Once applications are approved, supporters will be able to purchase match tickets directly from the CAF ticketing platform.
CAF emphasized that the new measures are part of efforts to deliver a smooth and secure experience for the tournament, which will take place across nine stadiums in six cities.
Morocco will be hosting AFCON for the first time since 1988, and excitement is building as 24 teams prepare to compete in what promises to be a thrilling showdown featuring the continent’s top football talent.
