Travelling to Zanzibar from Nigeria is an experience free of admin stress. You can either get your visa at the border on arrival, or you can apply at the Tanzanian embassy in Abuja, because Tanzania and Zanzibar have the same visa requirements.
To apply for a visa to Zanzibar from Nigeria, you need:
- Two recent passport photographs
- An international passport that is valid for at least 6 months from date of application
- An introduction letter from your employer
- Reservation details
- An invitation letter if you have been invited by someone
If you are applying for your visa at an embassy, you will have to make an electronic transfer. More detail about this can be found on the Tanzania High Commission website. If you are receiving your visa at the border, you should make your payment in cash.
Important documents you need to travel to Zanzibar:
- Yellow fever vaccination card
- Official identity card
- Copy of certificate of registration
- Copy of marriage certificate if married
- Copy of birth certificate for children
Remember that if you are not a government official or from a religious group, you have to apply for your visa in person. Have these documents with you when you apply and your applications will be smooth sailing!
