Zambia Visas

Updated: 11th March 2025

Visa Procurement

Please be advised that visa requirements are subject to change and that visa procurement is the responsibility of the traveler and not On The Go Tours. Please also ensure that your passport is valid for at least 6 months from your planned date of departure from Zambia.

African countries are in a continual state of political flux and visa requirements can change overnight. It is essential that you check visa requirements with the local embassy, consulate or a reputable visa handling company for every country you will be visiting in Africa for the most up-to-date visa information before you travel.

Vaccination Certificates: Anyone travelling from a Yellow Fever infected country may be required to show a Yellow Fever Vaccination Certificate upon arrival to be granted entry. Entry and exit requirements may be announced and altered at short notice so it is essential you check these requirements before you travel.

Visa Requirements

Most nationalities including UK, South Africa, Ireland, USA, Canadian, Australian and New Zealand passport holders do not require a visa to enter Zambia. You must be able to show valid return or onward tickets.
