Most visitors need a visa. You can usually apply online before you travel, which is quicker than queuing at the airport. Requirements depend on your passport, so always check the official Tanzania immigration website before you book flights.
Before you go
- Your passport should be valid for at least six months after you arrive and have blank pages
- Keep a copy of your visa approval and your return or onward ticket
- If you arrive from or pass through certain countries you may be asked for a yellow fever certificate (see Health and insurance)
- Tell us your arrival flight number and we will meet you at the airport
