    General Tips: Visa forms

  • Favorite Thing: You will find visa forms and detailed requirements on the web pages of the Zambian embassies nearest you.

    I suppose the forms are the same all over, and thus you can download a visa form from this site:
    www.zambiaembassy.se/Links/forms/visa_form.pdf

    The Zambian embassy in Stockholm wants one week's working time to processa visa.

  • Favorite Thing: Interesting money - and lots of them.
    July 2005 exchange rate to the dollar was 1:4600.
    The smaller notes are so worn that you cannot read their denomination, only guess by color code. The new, crisp notes are depicting beautiful animals.
    Banks, hotels change cash quickly. Didn't try bankcards in the ATMs, but they were on every corner at the shopping plazas of the Archades, Manda Hill etc.
    Apart from the odd exchange rate, the money handling in Zambia was easy.

     Flott at jeg nå kan dra nytte av den kunnskapen du har samlet gjennom alle dine reiser. Jeg planlegger en reise fra Kenya til Gambia med bil. Jeg har forresten en liten hytte på Zanzibar.ELI, Bergen, Norge

     Skjønner ikke helt hvorfor din side er lenger nede enn min, når den er så mye bedre. Så jeg tenkte jeg skulle gjøre noe med saken :-)

     An excellent page on your Zambia experiences! Glad to hear that things are still manageable there. My wife & I had problems with SAA in Harare in 1995 but they got us onto a BA flight to London with only 12 hours delay!
