Indonesia to Tanzania visa requirements

Indonesian ordinary passport holders need a visa for Tanzania. The recommended and most reliable channel is the Tanzania eVisa (Ordinary Single Entry), applied for online before travel via the official portal at visa.immigration.go.tz. The standard tourist eVisa costs USD 50, allows a single entry, and permits a stay of up to 90 days. A visa is required. Indonesia is not on Tanzania's visa-exempt list, so Indonesian travelers must obtain an Ordinary (Single Entry) visa for tourism. Tanzania operates an official electronic visa (eVisa) system through the Immigration Services Department portal (visa.immigration.go.tz), and the authorities strongly recommend applying online in advance rather than relying on visa-on-arrival. The Ordinary tourist visa costs USD 50, is valid for a single entry, and allows a stay of up to 90 days. Applications are processed within about 10 working days, so travelers should apply well ahead of departure. Required items include a passport valid at least 6 months with a clear bio-page scan, a passport photo, a return/onward ticket, and proof of accommodation. Payment is by credit/debit card. While visa-on-arrival at major entry points (e.g., Julius Nyerere International Airport, Kilimanjaro International Airport) remains technically available for many nationalities, the eVisa is the conservative, dependable route and is what the embassy in Jakarta and the immigration portal point Indonesian applicants toward. Travelers to Zanzibar should note an additional mandatory traveler insurance fee on arrival.
