CV — Crew Visa

The Crew Visa is a specialized classification issued to foreign nationals who are employed in the aviation sector and travel to Afghanistan for official work purposes. This category specifically covers personnel such as pilots, flight engineers, cabin crew, and aviation technicians who arrive in the country as part of their professional duties on an aircraft. By facilitating the movement of essential aviation staff, this visa ensures that international air transport operations can continue to function, supporting connectivity between Afghanistan and the international community. These visas are typically processed through Afghanistan's political and consular missions abroad, requiring verification of the applicant's professional role.

Applicants for a Crew Visa must possess a valid passport with at least six months of remaining validity. A key requirement for this visa is providing formal proof of employment, which clearly identifies the applicant’s role as flight crew, engineer, or technician. The standard fee for this visa is $600. Because this visa is tied to professional aviation activities, applicants should ensure that their documentation is complete and verifiable to avoid delays. Given the specific nature of this visa, it is highly recommended that applicants coordinate with their employer or airline to ensure all necessary paperwork is submitted in accordance with the current requirements set by the Afghan Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
