When do I need a visa for Tanzania?
Swedish passport holders need a visa to travel to Tanzania. Visas can usually be applied for online through Tanzania's official e-Visa system or in some cases obtained upon arrival at selected border crossings and international airports.
Tourist visas are used for holiday trips, family visits, and other private visits. Business travel, work, study, or long-term stays may require other visa categories or special permits. The final decision on entry is always made by the immigration authorities at the border, even if a visa has been granted in advance.
For travel to Zanzibar, the same visa rules apply as for the rest of Tanzania. In addition, from 2024 onwards, a special mandatory travel insurance is required for most visitors to Zanzibar.
Note: The above information applies to Swedish passport holders and many other EU citizens. Other nationalities may have different requirements. Some travelers may need to apply for a visa in advance or provide additional documents when applying.
