Your pre-flight checklist

Run these checks for every traveller, then repeat them for every country on your route.

  1. 01

    Use the right passport

    Check the exact nationality and travel document each person will use. Rules can differ for passports, refugee or emergency documents, and residence permits.

  2. 02

    Match the trip details

    Confirm the visit purpose, length of stay, number of entries and intended arrival date. Tourism, work, study and transit can have different rules.

  3. 03

    Check every permission step

    Find out whether you need a visa, e-visa, electronic travel authorisation, arrival form or fee—and whether it must be completed before boarding.

  4. 04

    Check the connection too

    For each stop, confirm whether you remain airside, change airports, collect bags or need to pass border control. Check the transit rules for that passport.

  5. 05

    Recheck before departure

    Review passport validity, supporting documents and current official instructions again before travel. Keep required confirmations available offline.

Common questions

Do I need a visa for tourism in Zambia?

The answer depends on your nationality, travel document, purpose and trip details. Nollu has not matched entry eligibility to your passport, so confirm with the official authority before booking.

Does a visa guarantee I can enter?

Do not assume that a visa or travel authorisation settles every border requirement. Follow the destination authority’s instructions for your exact trip and carry any supporting documents it requires.

Do I need to check transit rules?

Yes. Check every connection separately, including whether you need to change airports, collect baggage or pass through immigration.
