Tanzania passport holders can get a visa on arrival in Burundi. There is nothing to apply for in advance — the visa is issued at the airport or land border after you pay the fee. Bring cash in a major currency, a passport valid for at least six months, a return ticket and the address of your first night's accommodation, and expect a queue at busy airports.
The main option is the EAC visa, which costs Free.
Whatever your visa status, Burundi applies the same entry conditions to every traveller:
Burundi does not grant visa-free entry to any passport, offers a visa on arrival to 176, issues eVisas to 19 and requires an embassy visa from 3. Tanzania citizens are treated the same way as Algeria, Angola, Benin, Botswana and Burkina Faso. Overall the Tanzania passport ranks #113 in the world with 44 visa-free destinations.
Planning a longer trip in Africa? With a Tanzania passport you can also visit 17 countries in the region without a visa, including Angola, Benin, Botswana, Kenya, Lesotho, Mauritius, Malawi and Mozambique.
In the other direction, Burundi citizens can visit Tanzania visa-free.
