Do Brazil passport holders need a visa to visit TZ?

Brazilian ordinary passport holders need a visa for Tanzania and should apply for the Tanzania eVisa online before travel. Visa-on-arrival was phased out as the recommended channel, and the official eVisa portal is the correct route. The Tanzania Embassy in Brasilia lists Brazilians for a USD 100 multiple-entry tourist visa (valid one year, up to 90 days per stay), while a single-entry ordinary visa (USD 50, up to 90 days) is also available. A Brazil ordinary passport holder traveling to Tanzania for tourism is not visa-exempt and must obtain a visa in advance. Tanzania operates an official electronic visa (eVisa) system at visa.immigration.go.tz, which is the recommended and standard channel; the previous visa-on-arrival option, while still technically referenced in the guidelines, has been de-emphasized since early 2025 in favor of the eVisa. According to the Tanzania Embassy in Brasilia fee schedule, Brazilian citizens are quoted a USD 100 multiple-entry ordinary (tourist) visa valid for one year with stays of up to 90 days at a time, similar to the arrangement applied to US nationals. The standard single-entry ordinary tourist eVisa (USD 50, single entry, up to 90 days) is also generally available to Brazilians through the portal. Requirements include a passport valid at least six months with a blank page, a return/onward ticket, accommodation details, and a passport photo. Because Brazil is a yellow fever endemic/risk country, travelers arriving from or transiting Brazil must carry a valid yellow fever vaccination certificate. Processing is officially stated as within ten days; travelers should apply at least two to three weeks before departure. Always apply through the official government portal to avoid inflated agent fees. Verdict: eVisa (visa required, obtained electronically).
