How does this eVisa work?

The Republic of Zambia, more specifically the Ministry of Home Affairs (Department of Immigration), launched the e-Visa system in October 2015. The electronic visa (e-Visa) is an online system for applying for a visa to Zambia. Travelers who ordinarily require a visa to come to Zambia are eligible to apply through this procedure after submitting the required information and payment.

iVisa offers a fast and simple solution to obtaining your Zambian e-Visa. Travelers fill out an online application and are sent an electronic Visa on Arrival Tourist Letter.
