Zimbabwe Visa Requirements
Category A and B passport holders staying for short term holiday purposes can enter Zimbabwe with a minimum of formalities.

Last updated: 26th June 2025

Depending on your nationality, you may be required to obtain a visa to enter Zimbabwe. Please read the information below carefully to understand what applies to you and how to proceed.

As of April 2025, Zimbabwe Immigration has introduced a streamlined Online Visa Application and Immigration Declaration Form..

Click the above blue link to access the online form.

This new system has significantly improved the arrival experience at Zimbabwe's ports of entry, particularly at Victoria Falls Airport, by reducing waiting times and simplifying immigration procedures.

The visa categories (A, B, and C) remain in effect. Read the section below to find out which visa category your nationality falls under and what that means for you.






What are the Zimbabwe Visa Categories?

Zimbabwe classifies travellers into three visa categories:
Category A – No Visa RequiredNationals of Category A countries do not require a visa to enter Zimbabwe.
You will be granted entry at the border without needing to pay any visa fees.
An Immigration Declaration Form must still be completed.
You can fill in the form manually on arrival, but we recommend completing it online to save time:
Immigration Declaration Form (online)
Category B – Visa on Arrival or Pre-ApplicationNationals of Category B countries can obtain a visa at the port of entry (land borders or airports).
You now have the option to pre-apply online using the new system:
Online Visa Application and Immigration Declaration Form
Once completed, your visa will be approved instantly. When your passport is scanned at immigration, your visa will be stamped with no further delays.
You can pay online during the application (recommended), but if that fails, payment can still be made on arrival using cash or card. Your application will be on the system
If you don’t pre-apply, you’ll need to fill in the online form at the counter on arrival, which will delay your entry process.
Visa options available: Single Entry
Double Entry
Multiple Entry
KAZA Univisa
Category C – Visa Required Before TravelNationals of Category C countries must obtain a visa in advance of travel.
Apply online here:
Online Visa Application and Immigration Declaration Form

British and Canadian Passports Holders

British and Canadian passport holders need a Zimbabwe visa to visit Zimbabwe.

TThe current charge for a single entry Zimbabwe visa is US$ 55 and US$ 75 for a Double Entry Zimbabwe visa. The KazaVisa ($50) is in theory no longer available for British and Canadian passport holders as Britons and Canadians don't need a visa to get into Zambia anymore. However, there doesn't seem to be a definitive ruling on this, so you can request one, as it is a cheaper option for you.

American and Australian Passport Holders

American and Australian passport holders need a Zimbabwe visa to visit Zimbabwe.

The current charge for a single entry Zimbabwe visa is US$ 30 and US$ 45 for a Double Entry Zimbabwe visa. If you are also visiting Zambia, you no longer need a visa for Zambia, so there is no point in buying the KazaVisa ($50) as it is more expensive. However, if you are entering Zimbabwe 3 times i.e. going to Zambia and Botswana and back to Zimbabwe, then you can ask for a KazaVisa. However, there are no guarantees that you will be granted one.
