Can I Submit Photocopies Instead of Scanned Documents?

When applying for a Zambia e-Visa, providing documents is really essential for granting your travel document. The Zambia e-Visa system is designed to facilitate the entry of travelers into the country by allowing them to apply online. One common question applicants have is whether they can submit photocopies of their documents instead of scanned versions.

The answer is clear: scanned documents are required for the e-Visa application. Scanned documents are necessary for verifying the authenticity of your identification, travel itinerary, and any other supporting documents required for the application. Photocopies, while they can be clear and legible, do not meet the specific requirements of the online system. However, when you apply at Zambia Immigration Services, you can photocopy all your documents and use a scanner or a smartphone app to create high-resolution digital files and send it to us via email, we will standardize it for you before applying to the government. This way, you’ll be able to submit the correct format for your Zambia e-Visa application.

If you do not know what documents you should prepare, please check your conditions that are clarified on our website. If you have any concerns, please send us an email or fill in the contact form for more information.
