As of 1 January 2025, the African nation of Zambia has expanded its’ visa-exempt list to include 53 more countries.

This brings the total number of countries that no longer require a visa to enter Zambia for tourism or trade to 167.

According to Tourism Update, the waiver is a continuation of the Zambian government’s efforts to make the nation a key player in the global economy, following a similar visa waiver for 43 countries in 2022.

“The visa waiver is a direct response to President Hichilema’s call for Zambia to diversify its economy and attract international visitors. By lowering barriers to entry, the Government is not only aiming to increase the number of tourists but also to create new opportunities for trade and investment.” the Zambian government said in a statement.
