Tanzania: Tanzania Removes Special Visa Clearance for Nigerians
[Vanguard] Tanzania has removed Nigerian nationals from its referred visa category, ending the requirement for special clearance before they can obtain visas to enter the country.
Tanzania has eliminated the special visa clearance requirement for Nigerian nationals, allowing them to obtain visas through standard procedures. This change, announced by the Tanzania Immigration Services Department on September 25, comes into effect immediately. Previously, Nigerians had to secure referred visa clearance before applying for visas, a requirement that now applies to several other countries as well, such as Afghanistan, Eritrea, and Uzbekistan.
The new policy simplifies the visa application process for Nigerian travelers to Tanzania, who can now follow the standard visa application process via the official immigration online portal or designated entry points.
