Post new topic

Dali28

Hi everybody,

My husband and I would like to move to Arusha by the end of the year. We were wondering can we get just a resident permit??, we don't want to work, we just want to enjoy our life, just a normal life.
Is it possible to get that kind of visa?
Thanks guys

Hi,

We have been here since August and as far as I know there is no such thing as a residency visa.

My wife has a work vise/permit. but I am only allowed a visitors visa; $50 and good for three months.

What it means is that every three months I have to exit Tanzania and re-enter, purchasing a visa for another three months.

Hope this helps!
