For the relevant traveller scope, is a visa, electronic authorisation, visa on arrival or no advance visa normally required?

A visa is normally required: any foreigner wishing to travel to Chad must hold a visa issued by the competent administrative, diplomatic or consular authorities, and this route is the category 3 short-stay visa, not exceeding three months. Nationals of member states of the Central African Economic and Monetary Community (CEMAC) may freely enter, stay in and leave Chad under the CEMAC free-movement convention, and nationals of states with which Chad has signed visa-exemption agreements benefit from a privileged regime. Members of diplomatic and consular missions and their families are outside the decree. The official source does not list which states have visa-exemption agreements with Chad.
