Do Germany passport holders need a visa to visit TZ?

German ordinary passport holders need a visa for Tanzania. The recommended route is the online eVisa (Ordinary/Tourist Visa), applied for before departure at the official portal visa.immigration.go.tz. It costs USD 50, allows a single entry, and permits stays of up to 90 days. Germany is a visa-required nationality for Tanzania, and the standard channel is now the electronic visa (eVisa) obtained in advance through the Tanzania Immigration Department portal at visa.immigration.go.tz. German citizens qualify for the Ordinary (Single Entry) Visa for tourism, priced at USD 50, valid for a stay of up to 90 days. Tanzania has been pushing all eligible travelers toward the pre-departure eVisa rather than visa-on-arrival; while VOA remains technically available at major entry points (Julius Nyerere International Airport, Kilimanjaro International Airport, Zanzibar, and key land borders) for most nationalities, the immigration authority strongly recommends applying for the eVisa beforehand to avoid delays and the risk of refused boarding by airlines. Processing is officially up to 10 working days. The passport must be valid for at least six months from the date of entry, and applicants must upload a passport bio-page, a return/onward ticket, and a recent color photo. Note that the eVisa covers both mainland Tanzania and Zanzibar.
