Of 198 nationalities, 51 enter Tanzania with no paperwork at all.
The rest: 123 can get a visa at the border and 24 must be approved before they travel.
We have not found a Tanzania government portal we can link to with confidence, so
we link to none — a lookalike is worse than nothing. Apply through Tanzania's own
immigration service or its embassy.
