Is a visa required to go to Zanzibar?

Yes, a visa is required if you intend to visit Zanzibar. Remember that Tanzania, which includes Zanzibar, is not a member of the European Union. As a result, you will be unable to travel there with a basic ID or passport, and you must first obtain valid resident permission, such as an e-visa.

The e-visa for Tanzania, and hence Zanzibar, is valid for 90 days, or three months. Please keep in mind that there are many sorts of visas, such as single-entry visas and multiple-entry visas. This is required if your itinerary includes numerous entrances and departures from Tanzania. Both types of visas may be obtained quickly online and are issued in accordance with your departure date.

Here are some tips for getting a visa for Zanzibar:

• Apply for a visa ahead of time, especially if you will be going during the high season.
• Check that you have all of the necessary paperwork.
• Pay the whole visa cost.
• Prepare to supply your passport details as well as your trip dates.
