Documents depend on route and nationality
Zambia’s online eVisa workflow asks applicants to review the requirements, scan the documents and upload them in the permitted formats.
For visa-on-arrival travelers, the Department specifically refers to at least six months passport validity from entry, three full blank pages, host information and a physical address. Air travelers should have a valid return ticket; land and water arrivals should have enough funds for their stay and departure.
