Did you know? Chad
In 2017, an entire nation was added to a U.S. travel ban for a reason no diplomat saw coming: Chad had simply run out of passport paper. Unable to print fresh booklets or supply sample documents to American verifiers, N'Djamena watched its citizens locked out of the United States over a stationery shortage rather than any security threat. It was a stark reminder that in the world of identity documents, the physical booklet matters as much as the politics behind it - and that the humble passport remains one of the most powerful pieces of paper a person can carry.
- Passport ban Chad was placed on a 2017 U.S. travel ban partly because it had run out of passport paper and could not supply sample booklets for verification, a rare case of a document shortage triggering an international entry block.
- Trilingual passport The Chadian passport is printed in three languages - French, Arabic and English - reflecting a country where French and Arabic are both official tongues.
- Passport power As of the 2025 Henley Passport Index, the Chadian passport ranks around 81st, giving its holders visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to roughly 51 destinations worldwide.
- Invisible citizens Around three-quarters of Chadian children under five have no birth certificate, leaving more than four million people with no legal proof of identity - one of the lowest registration rates on Earth.
- Currency Chad uses the Central African CFA franc (XAF), issued in Cameroon by the Bank of Central African States and pegged to the euro at a fixed 655.957 francs - a rate unchanged since the euro launched.
- Colonial roots The CFA franc was born in 1945, when its initials stood for 'Colonies francaises d'Afrique'; after independence the letters were rebranded to mean 'African Financial Community.'
- Oldest human The 6-to-7-million-year-old skull of Sahelanthropus tchadensis, nicknamed Toumai, was unearthed in Chad's Djurab Desert in 2001 - the oldest known member of the human family tree.
- Vanishing lake Chad is named after Lake Chad, which has shrunk from roughly 330,000 square kilometres millennia ago to under 18,000 today, yet still ranks as one of Africa's largest wetlands.
- Independence Chad gained independence from France on 11 August 1960, ending decades as part of French Equatorial Africa.
