Know before you go

Travel documents, visa, and entry to Tanzania

You should make sure that all your travel documents are in place.
Among other things, your passport for international travel should remain valid for at least six months from the date of entry into Tanzania. It should also have at least two blank pages for the visa and stamps. You should also obtain a visa to enter Tanzania. An online application through the Tanzania Immigration Department website is the most convenient and fastest way to do this.
Though we will share some visa-related tips, please do not consider our recommendations to be ultimate or comprehensive advice. The information about visas and other entry requirements for visiting Tanzania published on our website is for general knowledge only, and though we try to keep it accurate and up to date, we recommend contacting the Embassy of the United Republic of Tanzania for the latest updates. No information published on our website about visas, vaccinations, or other entry requirements should be viewed as a warranty or representation.
You are also responsible for bearing all visa and other entry-related costs.
We shall not be liable if, in the highly unlikely event, you are denied entry to Tanzania or any other country on the way to Tanzania for whatever reason. You also agree that if you fail to enter the country for any reason, no refunds will be made, and it will not be possible to reschedule your tour, because we will have all the park fees prepaid and other expenses incurred by the time of your arrival.
