Types of visa
1. Single Entry VISA (Ordinary VISA / Tourist VISA)
- This visa is granted to a visitor for a single entrance for a time period of no longer than three months for travel, business, medical treatment, academic study, recreation, or any other activity that is legally permitted by law.
2. Multiple VISA
- This kind of visa is provided to allow a foreign national to visit Tanzania on many occasions within the visa’s validity. Multiple entry visas are given to foreigners who must frequently visit the United Republic of Tanzania due to the nature of their investments or business.
- This visa has a three-month to a one-year validity period, but only if there are no consecutive stays longer than 90 days. Typically, local contacts on the applicant’s behalf submit applications for multiple entry visas.
3. Transit VISA
- A transit visa is issued to allow the traveler to travel from one foreign location to another through the United Republic of Tanzania. Only those with onward tickets, adequate finances for transit, and an entry visa for the country of destination—or any documentation demonstrating that prior arrangements have been made that meet this requirement—may be granted this form of visa.
4. Business Visa
- A business visa may be granted to a person for a duration of up to three months of temporary employment in a business, trade, profession, or assignment. This visa is not extendable.
5. Gratis Visa
- Diplomatic, service and official passport holders are eligible to receive this sort of visa, with the exception of times when they are traveling in an unofficial position and must pay the appropriate fees.
6. Referral Cases
- Before issuing a visa, some nations’ citizens need a special okay from the Commissioner General of Immigration or the Commissioner of Immigration (Zanzibar). The referral visa category includes these nations.
