🇹🇿 Tanzania visa requirements for Uruguayan citizens
Uruguayan citizens can get a visa on arrival when entering Tanzania — no embassy visit needed beforehand.
Entry rules for Uruguay passport holders
Uruguayan travelers can obtain their visa directly at the border or airport when arriving in Tanzania. Bring a passport with at least six months' validity, passport photos, and the visa fee (often payable only in cash). Lines can be long at peak times, so check whether Tanzania also offers an e-visa to skip the queue.
Entry rules can change at short notice. Always confirm current requirements with the official Tanzania immigration authority or your nearest embassy before booking.
How this compares
The Uruguayan passport ranks #53 worldwide, opening 137 destinations without a visa arranged in advance (97 visa-free, 34 with a visa on arrival and 6 with an eTA). Tanzania is one of them.
