Tanzania Visa & Entry Requirements (2025) — What You Need

Visa-on-arrival, eVisa or pre-issued? Yellow fever or not? The practical, current-as-of-2025 entry guide for Tanzania.

Tanzania entry rules change occasionally. This was current as of mid-2025 — always double-check with your embassy before travel.

Visa Most nationalities can get a visa on arrival at Kilimanjaro (JRO), Dar es Salaam (DAR) or Zanzibar (ZNZ). USD 50 for most, USD 100 for US citizens (12-month multi-entry).

The Tanzanian eVisa system (eservices.immigration.go.tz) is the safer option — apply 2-4 weeks before travel, get approval emailed, skip the on-arrival queue.

Passport Must be valid for 6+ months beyond your entry date. At least one full blank page.

Yellow fever Certificate required only if arriving from a yellow-fever-endemic country (most of central Africa, parts of South America). Not required for direct flights from Europe, North America, Middle East, India.

At the airport USD 50 cash works for visa-on-arrival but eVisa is faster. We collect you in the arrivals hall — look for the Wakanda sign.

What we handle We send a pre-trip briefing 4 weeks before departure with current visa rules and any updates.
