Anny Z’s Workation to Tanzania: Key Insights from Dar es Salaam ✈️

In August 2024, Anny Z visited Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, uncovering essential details about student enrollment and visa processes that are crucial for prospective students and their sponsors. Sponsorship and Financial Proof For students from Tanzania, Rwanda, and Burundi, sponsorship is limited to parents, the students themselves, or older siblings. Sponsors are advised to maintain a bank balance between €12,000 and €14,000. It has been observed that demonstrating a slightly higher amount than the standard Income and Financial Proof Minimum (IPRAM) of €10,000 for Spain often results in better visa approval rates. Appointment Scheduling and Educational Gaps Given the high volume of applications, agents and students must notify the authorities at least one week before scheduling an appointment. This advance notice ensures that all necessary admission documents can be prepared and submitted to the embassy in time. Students with educational gaps exceeding two years need to provide official documentation explaining these gaps to clarify their academic history. Admission Process and Tuition Payment Students should clearly outline their educational objectives and demonstrate financial stability during admission interviews. An initial payment amounting to around 60% of the total tuition fees, which range from €6,500 to €9,000, is required. This upfront payment helps show serious intent and positively influences visa approval. Document Review The embassy will review all submitted documents and may request additional information within 10 working days if needed. There might also be a personal interview, depending on the case. For detailed guidelines and required documents, please refer to the Embassy Checklist. Anny Z’s insights provide valuable guidance for navigating the complex visa and enrollment process, aiding students and sponsors in their preparations for studying abroad.
