Do I need a visa for Zimbabwe from Greece?
Discover visa requirements for your trip
Greek nationals need a visa for Zimbabwe; it can be obtained on arrival or, preferably, online via the e-Visa before departure. A passport valid for at least six months is required.
This guide is for Greek citizens planning a tourist trip to Zimbabwe. The country issues a visa on arrival at the main entry points, but also offers an e-Visa to apply for online from Greece before boarding. Arranging the e-Visa ahead of time reduces waiting at the borders; your passport must be valid for at least six months, and the fee should be confirmed on the official source.
Do you need a visa?
Yes: holders of a Greek passport must obtain a visa to enter Zimbabwe. Two routes exist: the visa on arrival at authorised airports and border posts, or the e-Visa applied for online before departure. The pre-arranged e-Visa is recommended so you hold an already-approved authorisation and avoid queues.
How and where to apply
For the e-Visa, go from Greece to the official portal evisa.gov.zw: complete the form, upload a photo and the passport bio-data page, pay online and wait for approval by email. If you choose the visa on arrival, present yourself at the immigration desk with a complete file and the means to pay the fee.
Documents and fees
Prepare a Greek passport valid for at least six months, an ID photo, an accommodation address in Zimbabwe and a return or onward ticket. The visa fee varies depending on whether it is single-entry, double-entry or the regional KAZA univisa; the exact amount must be checked on the official Zimbabwean portal before travel.
Processing and tips
If you choose the e-Visa, lodge the application several working days before departure. A yellow-fever vaccination certificate may be required if you arrive from a risk country, so check this point in advance. Also consult the travel information from the Greek Ministry of Foreign Affairs (mfa.gr) for the current recommendations.
Common mistakes
Frequent problems are a passport valid for under six months, no means of paying for the visa on arrival, a missing onward ticket, or choosing a single-entry visa when a regional itinerary (Victoria Falls, Zambia, Botswana) requires several entries. Check the visa type suited to your route before booking.
