How to apply
Checked November 2026⚠️ Tanzania Immigration tells applicants to apply only through its official website (immigration.go.tz / visa.immigration.go.tz) and not through any other online links. Use only the official links below.
Visa on arrival
- Fee
- Same visa categories as online (ordinary visa US$50; US citizens US$100 multiple-entry)

- Up to 90 days
- Notes
- Available at official entry points to nationals on the portal's on-arrival list (includes most of Europe, the US, UK, Canada, Australia); not available to referral-category nationals, refugees or stateless persons. Immigration recommends applying online instead.
At the border
- Passport needs at least six months of validity and at least one unused visa page.
- A return ticket must be shown at the point of entry.
- Nationals of EAC states, most SADC states (except Comoros) and most Commonwealth states (except the UK, Canada, Nigeria, India, Pakistan, Australia and New Zealand) do not need a visa.
- One visa covers both mainland Tanzania and Zanzibar; each traveller, including children, needs a separate application.
- A Visa Grant Notice does not guarantee entry; the border officer makes the final decision.
