Do I need a passport to travel to Zanzibar from France?
Yes, a passport is required for travel to Zanzibar from France. Tanzania requires all visitors to have a valid passport, and Zanzibar is a semi-autonomous territory of Tanzania. Your passport must be valid for at least six months after the date of your intended departure from Tanzania.
If you want to stay in Tanzania for more than 90 days, you will need a visa in addition to your passport. Although French residents can receive a visa on arrival in Tanzania, it is best to apply for a visa ahead of time to prevent delays.
Here are some other documents that you may need when traveling to Zanzibar from France:
- A return ticket or other transportation arrangements.
- Proof of Zanzibar accommodation.
- An invitation letter from the company if you come to Tanzania for business purposes.
