Tanzania e visa requirements for Finnish citizens

Finnish tourists who want to visit Tanzania can now apply for an eVisa for Tanzania.

The eVisa is an electronic travel authorization introduced in Tanzania in 2018 to make obtaining a visa for short-term visitors easier. Unlike a regular visa, the e-Visa does not require a visit to an embassy or the submission of a paper application. The entire process only takes a few minutes to complete.

The Tanzanian eVisa is a single-entry visa that allows visitors to stay in Tanzania for up to three months for tourism, leisure, or short-term medical treatments. The e-Visa covers both Tanzania's mainland and Zanzibar.

If international visitors are planning to visit Tanzania for tourism, business, and transit reasons, they should consider the following visas:

Tanzania Tourist e-Visa: This visa allows people to enter Tanzania for touristic purposes, relaxing holidays, having a date with overseas friends, or short-term health treatment. It is further divided into 02 categories.

• Tanzania Tourist e-Visa (Single entry): A popular tourism choice with permission to stay 90 consecutive days for a single entry.
• Tanzania Tourist e-Visa (Multiple entries): The flexible access of this type is a big difference from the single entry. Finnish residents can enter the country as many times as they wish and stay in Tanzania for a period of every 3 months. The validity of this eVisa is within 1 year from the arrival date.

Tanzania Transit e-Visa (Valid for 7 days from arrival date): Travelers who want to stay in Tanzania on their route to another country for no more than 07 days can apply for this visa.
