Taiwan (Chinese Taipei) to Zimbabwe visa requirements

Taiwan ordinary passport holders need a visa for Zimbabwe and should obtain it in advance through the official eVisa portal (evisa.gov.zw). Taiwan is a Category C nationality, so it is NOT eligible for visa-free entry or visa on arrival and must secure an approved visa before traveling. Zimbabwe sorts foreign nationals into three groups: Category A (visa-exempt), Category B (eligible for visa on arrival), and Category C (must obtain a visa in advance). Taiwan (Republic of China) ordinary passport holders fall into Category C, which means there is no visa-free channel and no visa on arrival; travelers must apply and receive approval before boarding. The most practical route is the government eVisa system at evisa.gov.zw, which replaced the need to visit a Zimbabwe embassy or high commission. The standard tourist option is the ordinary single-entry eVisa at USD 30, with a double-entry option at USD 45 and the regional KAZA UNIVISA (Zimbabwe + Zambia, including Victoria Falls day trips to Botswana) at USD 50. Single-entry visas carry a 1-month validity; double-entry visas a 3-month validity. The permitted tourist stay is up to 30 days per entry, extendable in-country up to a maximum of 90 days at a Department of Immigration office. Official guidance lists average processing of about 7 working days, so applying at least 2 weeks ahead is prudent. Note: only ordinary passport holders can use the eVisa, and the visa is electronically linked to the passport used in the application. Conditions and fees can change, so confirm on evisa.gov.zw before travel.
