As of 6/11/2024, the online eVisa process for Tanzania has been restored.
The Tanzanian government confirms that it will continue to be possible to obtain a Visa on Arrival, but strongly advises travelers to obtain their eVisa before departure because “this streamlines applications, simplifies procedures, and more.”
Given the recognized instability of the situation, we recommend contacting us for this destination. We will process your eVisa applications before your departure to avoid any errors, the stress of having to reapply multiple times (system bugs), inability to pay, and the risk of not obtaining a Visa on Arrival.
