๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ฟ Does a Tanzanian need a visa for Thailand ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ญ?

e-Visa ยท up to 30 days

Yes, online (e-Visa). Tanzanian passport holders need a visa for Thailand, and it can be applied for online as an e-Visa before travelling.

Rule updated from Wikipedia's โ€œVisa requirements for Tanzanian citizensโ€ (checked 2026-10-04); the older passport-index dataset (January 2025) listed Visa required. Entry rules change: confirm with the embassy of Thailand or its official government website before you travel.

What this means for your trip

An e-Visa is applied for on the destination's official government website. You upload your passport scan and photo, pay online and receive an approval letter by email.

Apply well before departure and print the approval; use only the official portal, as many look-alike sites charge extra.

Your passport should normally be valid for at least six months beyond your planned departure date and have blank pages for stamps; many countries apply this rule.
