What is the cost of a work permit in Gambia?
Payment of the appropriate permit fees is made as soon as the Director General of Immigration approves the application. The validity of a residence permit is one calendar year (1 January to 31 January of the following year) and fees remain the same no matter the period or number of months it takes the permit to expire. Dependents of a holder of any residential permit will be included in the permit (this includes their spouse and children under 18 years).
The following fees are applicable:
Permit | Fee (GMD) |
Permit A (ECOWAS) | 3,000 |
Permit B (ECOWAS) | 2,500 |
Permit B (Non-ECOWAS) | 7,500 |
Entry visa | 7,000 |
Annual expatriate tax | 50,000 |
