Egypt to Tanzania visa requirements

Egyptian ordinary passport holders need a visa for Tanzania. The recommended route is the online eVisa (Ordinary/Tourist Visa, USD 50, single entry, up to 90 days). Visa on arrival is also available at major entry points, but applying online before travel is advised. Egypt (EG) is not on Tanzania's visa-exempt list, so an ordinary Egyptian passport holder must obtain a visa to enter the United Republic of Tanzania (mainland and Zanzibar) for tourism. Tanzania's official Immigration Services Department operates an eVisa system at visa.immigration.go.tz, which is the recommended channel. The standard tourist product is the "Ordinary Visa," costing USD 50 for a single entry and permitting a stay of up to 90 days; its validity window for entry is up to 90 days from issue. Visa on arrival remains available for Egyptians at official entry points (e.g., Julius Nyerere International Airport in Dar es Salaam, Kilimanjaro International Airport, Zanzibar's Abeid Amani Karume International Airport, and main land borders), but the immigration authority explicitly recommends applying online in advance to avoid delays. Note: the same Ordinary Visa can be reused for re-entry from another East African Community country during its validity. The Tanzania Embassy in Cairo also issues stickered visas, though at a higher fee and longer processing time than the eVisa. Tanzania is in East Africa and is not part of the Schengen area, so no Schengen 90/180 rule or ETIAS applies. Passport must be valid at least six months with a blank page. Conclusion: visa required; eVisa is the best single-fit channel for a short tourist stay.
