Please refer to the information below regarding travel formalities to Tanzania for Canadian citizens. Canadian passport holders are required to obtain a visa to enter Tanzania, including for tourism and short-term stays. Immigration matters are administered by the Tanzania Immigration Services Department, with official information available at https://www.immigration.go.tz/ (https://www.immigration.go.tz/). Canadian citizens may obtain a visa in advance through the official Tanzanian eVisa system or upon arrival (Visa on Arrival) at designated international entry points. Electronic visa applications must be submitted exclusively via the official government portal: https://visa.immigration.go.tz/ (https://visa.immigration.go.tz/).
A Canadian passport must be valid for at least six months beyond the intended date of departure from Tanzania and must contain at least one blank page for immigration stamps. Tourist visas issued to Canadian citizens generally allow a maximum stay of up to 90 days. Upon arrival, immigration authorities may require proof of onward or return travel, confirmed accommodation arrangements, and evidence of sufficient financial means to cover the duration of the stay. Travelers are strongly advised to hold comprehensive travel and health insurance valid for the entire visit.
From a health perspective, no vaccinations are mandatory for entry when traveling directly from Canada. However, a yellow fever vaccination certificate is required if arriving from, or transiting through, a country where yellow fever is endemic. Travelers should ensure routine vaccinations are up to date and seek medical advice prior to departure. Compliance with local laws, immigration regulations, and identity checks is mandatory throughout the stay, as Tanzanian authorities strictly enforce entry conditions and authorized lengths of stay.
