Visa Requirements for Tanzania
How to apply for a visa for Tanzania?
The easiest way to apply for a Tanzania visa, if your nationality is eligible, is online. This application method is a lot simpler and faster than applying in person at the nearest Embassy, and it takes a much shorter time to be processed.
First, you have to complete the Tanzania visa application form providing basic personal information, passport and flight details. Then, after you’ve completed every field, you have to use a credit or debit card to pay for the visa fees. After that, if payment is successful, then you just have to wait for your approval or rejection email.
Which countries are visa exempt?
