Do I need a visa for Zimbabwe from Denmark?

Discover visa requirements for your trip

In short

Danish travellers need a visa for Zimbabwe. It can be obtained on arrival at entry points, but an e-Visa applied for online before departure is recommended to avoid airport queues.

Danish nationals travelling to Zimbabwe can obtain their tourist visa on arrival or, preferably, apply in advance on the official e-Visa portal. The online process avoids waiting at the desk at Harare or Victoria Falls airport. The passport must be valid for at least six months.

Do you need a visa?

Yes. Danes are not visa-exempt for Zimbabwe. A tourist visa is available on arrival at the main entry points, and an e-Visa can be applied for online beforehand. Check on the official portal the category (single or double entry, or the regional KAZA visa depending on your itinerary) that suits your trip.

How and where to apply

For the e-Visa, submit your application on the official portal evisa.gov.zw: online form, photo, a copy of the passport page and proof of stay. Payment is made online and the approval is sent by email. Otherwise, the visa on arrival is paid directly at the Zimbabwean immigration post.

Documents and fees

Prepare a Danish passport valid for at least six months, a recent photo, an accommodation booking and a return or onward ticket. The visa fee is not set here: check the official rate on evisa.gov.zw and, for payment on arrival, plan to pay in the currency accepted at the border post.

Processing and tips

The e-Visa needs time for online processing: start the application several days before departure. The visa on arrival is issued on the spot, but printing an electronic approval speeds up the crossing. Keep your accommodation confirmation and return ticket to hand, and consult the Danish foreign ministry advice.

Common mistakes

Do not use paid intermediary sites that imitate the official portal. Relying on a visa on arrival without checking the accepted payment methods or your eligibility can cause problems. Finally, a passport with less than six months' validity can lead to denied boarding.
