    Referral ordinary passports: Tanzania advance electronic visa approval

    Tanzania Immigration's current referral list prohibits this cohort from using visa on arrival without special Commissioner-General permission and requires an online application approved before travel. The online grant notice makes the ordinary baseline evisa.

    • Referral nationals must apply online and wait for approval before starting travel, unless they obtain special approval from the Commissioner General of Immigration. They are advised to apply at least two months before travel and supply local-host/contact and invitation or visa-application-letter information where available.
    • This policy is evisa because the official portal processes the online application and lets approved applicants download the Visa Grant Notice. It does not turn the exceptional Commissioner's permission into a nationality-wide VOA route.
    • The direct referral list takes precedence over the raw VOA schedule's Burkina Faso and Guinea entries. Refugee and stateless applicants also cannot use VOA but are document/status categories, not ordinary-passport nationality policies.
    • Ordinary visitor approval does not authorize work or business and remains subject to entry documents, designated ports, health/yellow-fever requirements, funds/onward evidence, security and immigration-officer discretion.
