About Senegal

Whether your company is sending employees to Senegal or expanding your worldwide footprint—Fragomen is here to help. Our experienced immigration professionals partner with businesses of all sizes to develop immigration strategies that can help you achieve your goals.

  • ​Senegal's immigration system provides several options for employers of foreign nationals. For example, many foreign nationals are business visa exempt for stays of up to 90 days.
  • There is no short-term work permit in Senegal. Foreign nationals who intend to stay and work longer than 90 days must apply for a work and residence permit (carte d'identité d'étranger - or CIE). Work permits are generally issued for 24 months, except where the duration of the employment contract is less than two years. The residence permit is valid for six months. Both permits are renewable.

Fragomen can also consult on citizenship matters and, as permitted within the confines of local law, may be able to offer citizenship assistance.

 

Get in touch with Fragomen and one of our team members will be in touch with you shortly.
