Heading to Tanzania? There's a new travel rule you need to know before you pack
A mandatory USD 44 travel insurance fee now applies to most foreign visitors on arrival. Here's what it covers and how Hejet keeps your trip smooth.
Planning a trip to Tanzania soon? Before you pack your bags, there's a new travel rule worth knowing — and it's one that takes effect the moment you land.
What's changing
Foreign visitors travelling to Tanzania are now required to pay a mandatory travel insurance fee of USD 44 on arrival. The fee applies to most international travellers, with one notable exception: citizens of East African Community (EAC) and Southern African Development Community (SADC) member states are not required to pay it.
The good news
This isn't just another line on your travel budget. The USD 44 fee buys real protection — coverage for medical emergencies, accidents, baggage issues, and other unexpected situations that can disrupt a trip. It means you can explore Tanzania's breathtaking scenery and vibrant culture with a little extra peace of mind.
“The fee is mandatory, but the coverage is genuine — medical emergencies, accidents and baggage cover included, so you travel knowing you're protected.”
