Timor-Leste visa for Zambian citizens

Embarking on your journey from Timor-Leste to Zambia is simplified with the e-visa option, allowing for stays of up to 90 days; for example, business travelers may find the dedicated business visa a cost-effective choice, though the specific fee for this type is detailed in the table below. As a Timor-Leste passport holder, remember that securing your e-visa in advance is crucial, as e-visa processing can take up to 7 business days, and a direct flight from Dili to Lusaka is highly unlikely, often involving at least two layovers. Given that Zambia operates on Central Africa Time (CAT), which is UTC+2, you'll need to account for this significant time difference when planning your arrival and any initial meetings.
