Organised Tour Option for Other Travellers

For travellers from countries not on the standard visa-free list, there is an alternative route. Citizens of Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Macau, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan may enter Tunisia without a tourist visa provided they are travelling as part of an organised tour group and can present a valid hotel voucher upon arrival.

This arrangement gives a broader pool of visitors the chance to experience Tunisia without going through the full visa application process.

Beyond Africa, the visa-free arrangement extends to citizens of the European Union (excluding Cyprus), as well as nationals from countries including the United States, Canada, Australia, Brazil, China, India, Japan, and the United Arab Emirates, among others. Canada and Germany enjoy particularly generous terms, with their citizens permitted to stay for up to four months without a visa.

Tunisia eVisa on the Horizon

Travellers from countries currently required to obtain a visa before arrival may soon have a simpler option. The Tunisian government is actively developing an electronic visa system that would allow applicants to complete the entire process online, submitting personal details, passport information, and travel plans through a digital form and paying the applicable fee without visiting a consulate.
