Eligibility Requirements
Holding a valid Curacao passport qualifies you for a Tanzania eVisa. The system is accessible to Curacao nationals worldwide. Your eligibility depends solely on passport validity and your genuine travel purpose.
What Exactly Is an eVisa?
An eVisa represents an electronic travel authorization issued digitally by the Tanzanian government. It differs from traditional visas because it exists only in a computer system. Your approval gets linked to your passport number automatically.
This authorization permits you to enter Tanzania for your stated objective. It specifies how many days you're permitted to stay and whether you can visit multiple times. These specifications are crucial for planning.
The Application Procedure
Start by filling out an online application form. You'll provide personal details, passport
information, and travel specifics. Describe your accommodation and explain your visit purpose.
After submitting the form, upload scanned copies of required documents. These files must be clear and
properly formatted. Your application enters the review queue afterward.
Monitoring Application Status
You can check your progress anytime by visiting the Tanzania eVisa status page. Enter your passport number and order ID for immediate updates. This eliminates the need for support inquiries.
Processing Speed Options
Multiple processing speeds accommodate different schedules. Standard processing offers lower costs but requires more time. Expedited processing costs more but delivers results faster. Both options maintain identical approval standards.
Your fees comprise government charges and service charges, displayed separately. Review both before finalizing. For complete cost information and timeframes, check our fees and processing time page.
Documentation Needed
Your application requires specific supporting documents to verify your identity and travel intentions. Submit all documents as digital files. Rather than detailing each requirement here, we've prepared comprehensive guidance.

Tanzania's Appeal for Caribbean Visitors
Tanzania captivates visitors from Curacao with its remarkable natural diversity. The country combines stunning geography with vibrant local cultures. Mount Kilimanjaro attracts climbers seeking Africa's tallest mountain. The Serengeti National Park showcases the world's most impressive wildlife spectacle annually.
Zanzibar Island offers a completely different experience with beautiful coastlines and historical exploration. The Ngorongoro Crater provides unparalleled wildlife viewing opportunities. Lake Tanganyika enables water sports and peaceful retreats.
Caribbean visitors often appreciate Tanzania's warm climate and authentic African heritage.
Essential Pre-Travel Information
- Before departure, verify your passport has at least six months validity remaining from your entry date. This standard applies to most countries including Tanzania.
- Tanzania uses the Tanzanian Shilling for currency. ATMs operate in major cities like Dar es Salaam and Arusha. Credit cards work in tourist establishments, but cash is necessary for remote locations.
- English is widely understood in tourist areas and business zones. Swahili is the primary language, and locals appreciate visitors attempting basic greetings. The combination covers most communication needs.
- Health precautions are important. Yellow fever vaccination is recommended for certain regions. Travel insurance including medical coverage is highly recommended. Consult your doctor about current recommendations for your specific itinerary.
Overstaying Penalties
Your eVisa permits you to stay for a specified number of days. Remaining beyond this period violates Tanzanian law. Consequences include substantial fines, possible detention, and future entry bans.
If you need additional time, apply for an extension through Tanzanian immigration before your current permit expires. Extensions aren't guaranteed.
Available eVisa Categories
Tanzania offers multiple eVisa types designed for different travel purposes. Tourism eVisas suit holiday makers, business eVisas serve professionals, and others address specific needs. Each type has particular requirements.
