Get a Burkina Faso Visa

1. When is the best time to apply for my Burkina Faso visa? The best time to apply for your Burkina Faso visa is 1-2 months before your travel date.
2. Do I have to send you my passport to get a Burkina Faso visa? Is it safe to send a passport? You will need to send your actual passport, not a copy of it.
