Tanzania eVisa Digital Technology

What is Tanzania eVisa?

The Tanzania eVisa is an electronic visa that permits travelers to enter Tanzania for tourism, business, medical treatment, or transit. This digital visa system was introduced to streamline the visa application process and reduce the time and effort required to obtain travel authorization.

Unlike traditional visa applications that require physical visits to embassies or consulates, the eVisa can be applied for entirely online. Once approved, the electronic visa is sent directly to the applicant's email address and must be printed and presented upon arrival in Tanzania.

Important: The Tanzania eVisa is mandatory for most foreign nationals. It's linked electronically to your passport and serves as your official entry authorization.
