Visa And Passport Guide To Tanzania

Passport Requirements for Tanzania

It should remain valid for at least six months beyond your planned stay and contain at least two blank facing pages (three recommended). A tourist visa is valid for three months from the date of issue. Enea Africa Tours advises checking your passport well in advance of your travel date.
