All delegates from some specific countries are required to apply for an e-Visa in advance through the official Tanzanian Immigration website: https://visa.immigration.go.tz/. Once your visa application has been submitted, you are kindly requested to share your application code using the designated form provided by the Africa IGF Secretariat. This will help us coordinate efficiently with the immigration authorities to ensure timely processing and approval.

Countries requiring a Referral Visa include:
Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Burkina Faso, Chad, Eritrea, Guinea-Bissau, Guinea Conakry, Iran, Iraq, Kyrgyz Republic (Kyrgyzstan), Lebanon, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Nigeria, Pakistan, Palestine, Somalia, Sierra Leone, Syria, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Yemen, and stateless persons or individuals holding refugee status.

Please do not fill this form if  your passport country is not listed among the countries requiring a Referral Visa. This form is only for delegates holding passports from the countries listed above.

Important Notes:

• Do not book flight tickets or make hotel reservations in Tanzania until your visa application has been fully approved.

• Stateless persons and refugees who hold travel documents under the Vienna Convention must also obtain a Referral Visa prior to traveling to Tanzania.

• The list of countries requiring a Referral Visa is subject to change. We encourage all delegates to check the Tanzanian Immigration website regularly for any updates or changes in visa policy.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation. The Africa IGF Secretariat remains available to assist you throughout the visa process to ensure a smooth and successful experience for all participants.
