Information posted on the Cameroon High Commission in London website is misleading. It indicates that one of the documents required to accompany the two copies of the application form for a tourist visa was the legalised invitation letter from a contact in Cameroon. This in fact is NOT required! Only visitors (and not tourists) have to submit this invitation. Tourists must provide copy of their return ticket, hotel booking and proof of funds (at least €1000). Also, the visa is ready within 24 hours and not within 48 hours as stated on the website. The cost is £59 (50,000 CFA) for a multiple entry three month visa, which is exactly what would citizens of Cameroon pay and get when applying for a UK visa. Cameroon High Commission - only cash, and change was almost never given, though. Cameroon visas can only be applied for in the morning, collection any time. --- Open your eyes. Free your mind.
