It can be bought online or at ports of entry on arrival, only for the first port of entry: from the National Insurance Corporation (NIC) if they arrive in mainland Tanzania first, or from the Zanzibar Insurance Corporation (ZIC) if they intend to arrive in Zanzibar first. Travellers who bought ZIC insurance before 1 October may use it when the mainland is their first port of entry. Visitors without the required insurance may be refused entry.
