Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What are the required documents and information for a Tanzania Volunteer eVisa?
As with any other visa, you have to meet a few requirements. However, the ones for a Tanzania Volunteer eVisa are easy to achieve because there are not many, and chances are that you already have some of the necessary documents and information. They are as follows:
- Passport – look at the expiry date to make sure that it stays valid for at least another 6 months from your date of arrival in Tanzania. One blank page for the visa stamp is also necessary.
- Scan of the passport’s information page
- Photo
- Return flight ticket
- Invitation letter – request one from the NGO you want to work with in Tanzania
- Registration Certificates of the NGO
- E-mail address
- Means of online payment – you can use a credit/debit card, PayPal, Alipay, or WeChat
How does the online application process work?
It’s pretty simple. Once you have everything you need, you can access the application page and fill in the application form. It is a task that usually takes a few minutes, but if you need assistance or have questions, feel free to reach iVisa’s customer support service, which is available non-stop and does not charge extra fees.
The form we are talking about consists of two steps. The first one wants you to fill in the blanks with general information, but you must also decide on a timeframe in which your application is processed. The second step expects you to handle the payment and to review your form. Mistakes will invalidate your eVisa. When you are finished, click on the submit button, and iVisa will do the rest.
