The Tanzania Immigration Services Department Tanzania operates as a critical security organ under the Ministry of Home Affairs, tasked with the sovereign responsibility of managing the country’s borders. Established under the Immigration Act of 1995, the department is mandated to control the entry, stay, and exit of all persons within the United Republic of Tanzania. Its operations are guided by the dual mission of safeguarding national security while facilitating the movement of people to promote economic development, tourism, and international cooperation. A significant focus of the department in 2025 is the continued advancement of its digital infrastructure. Through the e-Immigration Online Portal, the department has modernized the way it interacts with both citizens and foreign nationals. Tanzanian citizens can now apply for biometric e passports through a streamlined digital process, while international visitors can secure an e-Visa before arrival. This shift toward automation has drastically reduced processing times, enhanced transparency, and minimized physical paperwork at major entry points such as Julius Nyerere International Airport and the Namanga border. For foreign nationals, the department manages a comprehensive system of residence permits and visas tailored to various activities.
