Travel Info

Visa and Entry

Entry requirements depend on your nationality and travel history, and they can change. Always confirm them before you travel.

Before you go

  • Most visitors need a visa to enter Tanzania. Many can apply for one online before travel.
  • Check that your passport has enough validity and blank pages. Rules differ by country, so confirm the exact requirement.
  • Apply only through Tanzania's official immigration channels, and keep a printed copy of your approval.
  • Check whether proof of vaccination, such as yellow fever, is required for your route.

Official sources

Check the Tanzania immigration authority and your own government's travel advice service for current rules. We cannot apply for a visa on your behalf unless we agree this in writing.

Travelling to Zanzibar

Zanzibar has its own entry procedures in addition to mainland rules. Check them ahead of time if you are flying direct, or if your itinerary crosses between the mainland and the islands.

This is general information, not professional advice. Rules and conditions change, so always check current official guidance before you travel.
