Zambia e Visa For Tourism
The Zambian e-visa for tourism is a travel document issued to foreign nationals from eligible countries coming to Zambia for holidays, tours, sightseeing, or any other leisure activities. This e-visa is issued as a single-entry, double-entry, or multiple-entry Visa. For the single entry visa, you can only use it once and will have to apply for a new one each time you wish to visit the country. The double entry visa allows you to visit a second time, while the multiple entry visa allows you to visit as often as you want as long as your Visa is valid.
This Visa is valid for 90 days after issue, so you should use it before it expires, and you can stay in Zambia for 3 months. Interestingly, you can also apply for an extension once you are in the country. Application for an extension should be submitted to the Department of Immigration. The application is free, and you can apply for 90-day extensions twice.

Zambia e Visa For Business
The Business e Visa is for business visitors attending meetings or conferences or pursuing their business interests in the country. If you are a one-off visitor that will not be visiting any time after your next visit, a single entry visa will suffice; for a return visit, you may opt for a double entry visa rather than apply for a new one soon. However, a multiple-entry visa is your best option if you are a frequent visitor. Business visas allow you to stay in the country for up to 90 days, but you can extend it twice for 90 days each.
To get the e-visa, you must provide information about your host and details related to your business activities. It is also important to note that this e-visa should not be mistaken as a work visa, so you are not allowed to engage in any paid employment or work activity that will earn you direct wages.

Zambia e Visa For Transit
Transit visitors looking to change flights en route to a third country must obtain a transit visa if they intend to leave the airport before their flight is ready or will remain in Zambian territory for more than 12 hours. This Visa is usually issued as a single-entry visa, but you can apply for a double or multiple-entry visa if you pass through Zambia two or more times. One of the criteria for this Visa is holding a flight ticket for the onward trip to your next destination. Transit e visas have the same features as the other e-visa types.
