Please be aware that with immediate effect Kilimanjaro airport has changed the process of issueing visas on arrival.
Clients arriving in Kilimanjaro without a visa now need to complete the following process:
• Queue for
a Government Control Number
• Queue
to pay for this at the bank
• Queue
for Immigration to check and issue the visa
Please
let your guests know about this change, and strongly recommend that those that
still have time before they travel apply for their Tanzania visa online at www.immigration.go.tz. The online process
asks for more information than a visa on arrival, and are issued within 2 – 3
weeks.
The changes at Kilimanjaro
has meant that the visa on arrival process can take in excess of two hours, and
would really prefer that your guests did not have to go through that. Measures
are being put in place to make this quicker, but until that happens the above
recommendation is best.
Important: Please also be reminded
that it is in force a ban on importing and using plastic bags throughout the
country. Please notify all customers arriving in the country of this ban:
