Planning a safari in Tanzania? U.S. citizens need to secure a tourist visa before boarding a flight—there’s no visa-on-arrival option. The eVisa process is straightforward: apply online, upload your documents, and wait for approval. Processing can take several days, so start early.
Your passport must be valid for at least six months past your arrival, with one blank page for the visa stamp. You’ll also need proof of a return flight and hotel booking. Health requirements vary, but a yellow fever vaccination certificate may be asked for if you’re traveling from certain countries.
The bottom line: Don’t leave visa prep until the last minute. Tanzania’s natural beauty—from Serengeti safaris to Zanzibar beaches—makes the paperwork well worth it.
