The Agency National de aviation Civil du Senegal (ANACIM) must provide permission to operate flights to Senegal.
Senegal maintains particular entrance restrictions for international aircraft at Blaise Diane International Airport (GOBD/DSS), which is the aviation hub of West Africa with state-of-the-art facilities.
Everything operators need to know about acquiring landing permits in Senegal is covered in this extensive reference, which also includes improved application processes, revised 2024 laws, and professional advice for seamless approvals.
A Senegal landing permit is official authorization from ANACIM that allows foreign-registered aircraft to land at Senegalese airports. This mandatory permit applies to:
✔ Private and business jets
✔ Charter flights (passenger and cargo)
✔ Non-scheduled commercial operations
✔ Humanitarian/medevac flights
✔ Technical stops exceeding 2 hours
You need an Senegal landing permit if you are operating:
✔ Private flights (general aviation)
✔ Charter flights (non-scheduled commercial flights)
✔ Cargo flights
✔ Military or diplomatic flights
✔ Emergency or medical evacuation flights
An aircraft can land at any airport in Senegal with a landing permit, which is an official license from the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) of Senegal . All non-scheduled, private, and charter flights require this authorization.
Because their activities are covered by bilateral agreements, commercial airlines that operate regularly scheduled flights do not require a special permission.
