Effective October 1, 2024, it will be mandatory for all foreign visitors to Zanzibar to possess a valid Inbound Travel Insurance which will provide coverage for the duration of their stay (up to 92 days).
The three-month scheme is expected to cost each visitor USD 44 and must be acquired ONLY from the Zanzibar Insurance Corporation through a QR Code that will be provided before embarking on their journey to Zanzibar. Failure to comply with this mandatory requirement may result in entry denial at immigration checkpoints.
