Tanzania is a beautiful East African country with neighbours Kenya to the north and Mozambique to the south and the Indian Ocean to the east. It is known for its vibrant culture, wonderful national parks, diverse fauna and flora and of course the great wildebeest migration. If you are planning a safari trip to Tanzania then you should find out all about flights to Tanzania, passport and visa requirements.
Tanzania’s main airport is Julius Nyerere International Airport (DAR) located 13km/8mi southwest of Dar es Salaam. The latter is the entry point for visitors to the southern parks.
Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO) is situated 46km/29mi east of Arusha, the gateway of Tanzania’s most popular Northern safari circuit.

• All foreign visitors need a passport that is valid for at least six months
• Passports must have a clean and a full visa page for endorsement.
• When arriving from a yellow-fever-infected country in Africa or the Americas a yellow fever vaccination certificate is required.
• Citizens of most countries require a visa. A list of countries that don't need a visa is available.
• Visas are best obtained in advance through an official online visa-application portal (https://eservices.immigration.go.tz/visa/), but they can also be obtained through your local Tanzania Embassy or High Commission.
• Visas can also be obtained on arrival but this is a lengthy process that can take one to two hours.
