Good to know

Singapore is a Commonwealth country, and Tanzania's Visa Guidelines exempt "Commonwealth countries except the United Kingdom, Canada, India, Pakistan, Australia and New Zealand"; Singapore is also on the Tanzania High Commission (Kuala Lumpur) list of countries which do not require a visa. Stay: Singapore MFA (page dated 2 January 2026) says "Singaporeans can visit Tanzania for up to 90 days over six months without a visa" — modelled as 90 days in a rolling 180-day window (the stricter reading of 'six months'). Tanzania's own sources do not state the visa-free stay length. Mandatory inbound travel insurance: NIC's official FAQ states the cover "is mandatory to all foreigners traveling in Tanzania Mainland", entering by land, sea or air, premium the TZS equivalent of USD 44 per person, valid 92 days with multiple entries, buy online at inbound.nicinsurance.co.tz or at the entry point; residents of EAC/SADC partner states are excluded (https://inbound.nicinsurance.co.tz/faqs). Canada's travel advice (updated 7 Oct 2026) confirms the insurer is NIC for mainland entry and the Zanzibar Insurance Corporation (ZIC) for entry via Zanzibar. Yellow fever: Immigration's tourist-info page says visitors must follow the Ministry of Health's yellow fever requirements; Canada's advice says proof of vaccination is required if arriving from, or transiting an airport in, a yellow-fever country.
