  • Common issues stem from exceeding the cumulative 90-day annual limit if making multiple trips
  • No embassy or VFS visit is required for standard visa-exempt entry
  • Keep a printed return ticket and accommodation details handy for immigration checks
  • For extended stays or work purposes, contact the Zambia Department of Immigration well ahead of your trip
