Do you need a visa to transit at Libreville (LBV)?
Not in the ordinary case. Libreville (LBV), Gabon, has an international zone: connecting from one international flight to another crosses no border, and you have nothing to present to the local authorities. Beware if the onward flight is domestic, though: there you enter the territory, and the entry conditions apply.
You have 60 minutes for a journey that requires 70 at the strict minimum. No airline would sell this connection on a single ticket: it would be required to reroute you, and it knows it.
The official minimum connecting time database is an IATA commercial product. Our value for Libreville is a curated estimate, not contractual data. The figure that counts is your airline's.
With no prediction for this specific flight, the calculation uses an average delay distribution — roughly one flight in four late, most of them barely. A flight known for being punctual, or for the opposite, will depart from this figure.
This calculation assumes two international flights on a single ticket, with no terminal change and without knowing your passport. Specify them — that is where the verdict really changes.
