What is the Tanzania Transit eVisa?

A Tanzanian transit visa is a valid visa that allows you to cross the country from one point of entry to another destination. The purpose of this document is to allow tourists to enter Tanzania to simply pass through without visiting.

This Tanzania visa is issued only to persons with a round-trip ticket, sufficient funds for the trip, and an entry visa for the destination country or other documents to secure travel.

This document is for travelers passing through Tanzania on their way to another destination and who wish to leave the airport for a maximum of 7 days. This is not a tourist visa, a Tanzania referral visa, or a business visa.

If, for any reason, the Government rejects your document application, you are entitled to a full refund of the iVisa processing fee, related to the number of rejected applicants. However, government fees are nonrefundable.

On the other hand, if you have applied for any of our guided entry services, we cannot refund the processing fee if your application is rejected.

To request a refund, please email help@iVisa with the registered account's email address. You must include the order number and the reason why you are requesting the refund.

You can also re-apply for the Tanzania Transit Visa depending on the reasons for cancellation or rejection.

If a credit card transaction is declined, it might be due to a high level of recent activity on the card, a lack of matching AVS information (Address Verification System), the card being over its limit, or a range of other reasons known only to your bank. Contact your bank to find out why the transaction is being declined.

If your visa still needs to be processed, our iVisa experts can make any changes without any problem. We also constantly check that there are no errors in your information.

However, if the application has already been sent to the appropriate government agency, some will allow us to make changes, while others will not. This will depend a lot on the flexibility of the country you are applying to.

If you have any problems during your application, please do not hesitate to contact us immediately, preferably via chat.

We recommend you to check your spam folder if you do not find the confirmation email in your inbox. If it is not there either, please contact our experts by chat to have the email resent to you.

While we work diligently to expedite the process, it’s important to note that we are reliant on the processing times set by the government authorities.
