Travel health update • 12 November 2026
Travelling to Kenya, mainland Tanzania or Zanzibar? Use the links below to complete the Ebola health declaration for each stop on your itinerary.
Everyone entering or leaving Kenya must undergo health screening and give a health declaration at the airport, seaport or land border.
If you arrive from Angola, Burundi, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Ethiopia, Rwanda, Somalia, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda or Zambia, complete the electronic form before entering Kenya. If flying, submit it before leaving the aircraft. Save the QR code to show Port Health.
All travellers entering mainland Tanzania by air, land or sea must complete the online health form. You can submit it before departure or on arrival. Save the QR code or reference number and expect a temperature check on arrival.
Zanzibar has its own health form. Its official portal asks all arriving travellers, including children, to complete it within 24 hours before arrival. The Ebola advisory specifically requires a declaration if you arrive from or transit through the DRC, Uganda or Kenya, including a connection in Nairobi.
Use the passport details for each traveller, save any confirmation on your phone and allow extra time at border checks. Check the rules for your route with your airline before departure, along with any applicable eTA and inbound travel insurance requirements.
