The Confederation of African Football (CAF) and the AFCON Morocco 2025 Local Organising Committee have announced that fans traveling to the tournament can now obtain free electronic visas through the YALLA app.

This policy benefits citizens of countries that normally require a visa to enter Morocco, making it easier for fans to attend the continent’s biggest football event.

“Electronic visas to enter Morocco — obtained through the YALLA app — are now free of charge for supporters attending the competition, which runs from 21 December 2025 to 18 January 2026,” CAF said in a statement.

The move aims to boost attendance and encourage wider participation, with more fans booking tickets on CAF’s ticketing platform.

Persecondnews reports that to attend the tournament, fans will need two documents: a Fan ID and an e-visa.

“A Fan ID is mandatory for entry to all stadiums and official Fan Areas,” CAF stated.

Supporters can apply for both documents in one place inside the YALLA app, streamlining travel and stadium access.

The Fan ID application and e-visa request are completed seamlessly within the app, ensuring a faster, easier, and secure experience for international visitors and local fans alike.

Fans can download the YALLA app on Google Play or the App Store, or visit the official YALLA website, complete the Fan ID form, and submit the e-visa request if required.

Once approved, supporters can purchase match tickets on the CAF ticketing platform.

“The new measures are designed to deliver a seamless, secure fan experience for Africa’s showpiece event that will be played across nine stadiums in six cities,” CAF said.

The 2025 Africa Cup of Nations will feature 24 teams and return to North Africa amid high expectations, fierce rivalries, and a new generation of African stars ready to make their mark.
