Zambia
A passport and Zambia visa
are required. Passports must have at least six months validity
remaining and three blank visa pages. A visa may be obtained in advance
at a Zambian Embassy or Consulate or you can apply through an expediter
to get your Zambia visa fast.
You can also get a visa at the port of entry. At the time of entry, the immigration
officer will stamp your passport with the permitted length of
stay. Typically, an immigration officer will admit an American
citizen for the exact number of days they request, up to a maximum of
thirty days. Visitors with indefinite departure plans may want to
request admission for thirty days on arrival in the country. Visitors
who wish to stay longer than their initial period of entry may visit an
immigration office to obtain no more than two thirty-day extensions
(for a total time of 90 days). Zambian Immigration officials
insist that visitors carry the original or a certified copy of their
passport and immigration permit at all times. Certified copies
must be obtained from the immigration office that issued the
permit. American citizens should closely follow immigration
guidelines, including visa requirements for travel to Zambia.
In recent months, a number of American citizens have
encountered difficulties with Zambian Immigration officials as a result
of their volunteer activities in Zambia. Americans who wish to
engage in voluntary service in Zambia, even on a short-term basis, are
reminded that they must enter Zambia on a business visa. Business
visas may be obtained by presenting a letter of invitation from the
organization that is sponsoring the volunteer. Americans who
engage in volunteer activities on a tourist visa are subject to fines
and removal by the Zambian Department of Immigration.
All Americans, except resident diplomats, must pay an airport
departure tax which is collected in U.S. dollars. Airlines
include this tax in the cost of the ticket; however, passengers will
need to verify that this tax has been paid at the airport. The
passenger will receive a “no-fee” receipt reflecting this payment.
