Traveling from the UK to Zambia has never been as easy as it is now. Zambia is, indeed, a beautiful country where you can create unforgettable memories, but obtaining a visa is among the things you need to do before leaving.

As a UK citizen, you will not be able to enter Zambia without a visa. Lucky for you, there is an easier way of getting it than going to a Zambia Embassy and apply for one. All you have to do is to use the services provided by iVisa, a company that expedites the process entirely online.

Keep in mind that you will not receive a visa per se from iVisa. What you will get is an approval letter that will help you get the visa when you arrive in Zambia. It will be given to you at the immigration office. Even so, the approval letter will allow you to fly there.

To know more details about this process, we invite you to keep reading this article.
