Application quality checklist
- Enter your passport details for Tanzania exactly as printed — names, number, and expiry must match.
- Pick the option that matches your trip — Tanzania offers Tourist Evisa (Single Entry for 90 days), Tourist Evisa (Multiple Entries for 1 year), Transit Evisa (Single Entry for 7 days).
- Upload clear, legible files: Tanzania decisions are document-based, so unreadable scans trigger most follow-up requests.
- Check your travel dates against the visa validity (commonly 60 days) before you submit.
For Tanzania, most avoidable delays come from data mismatches and unclear uploads — not payment — so review every field against your passport before checkout.
