With a Tunisian passport you can visit 94 countries and territories without going to an embassy. 38 of them are fully visa-free: you show your passport at the border and walk in.

The list below uses the same data as our Tunisia passport page, so the two always match. When we confirm a rule change with an official source, both update together.

Four ways in without an embassy

  • Visa-free: no application. Show your passport, and usually a return ticket, at the border.
  • Visa on arrival: you get the visa at the airport or border when you land. A fee may apply.
  • eTA: a short online travel authorisation, applied for before you fly.
  • eVisa: a full visa, but you apply on the official government website. No embassy visit.

All four count as "no embassy". Only the last two need an online application before you travel.

What changed for Tunisians in 2025 and 2026

Visa lists age quickly. These are the changes we have confirmed since the start of 2025:

  • Thailand: e-Visa instead of visa on arrival (since 15 September 2026). Tunisia was on Thailand's visa-on-arrival list, which is now limited to Azerbaijan, Belarus and Serbia. Apply for a Thai e-Visa online at thaievisa.go.th before you fly. See Thailand's new visa rules.
  • Kenya: no eTA, up to 60 days (since 30 May 2025). Tunisians are among the African nationals exempt from Kenya's electronic travel authorisation. See who can skip Kenya's eTA.
  • Ghana: free eTA. As African Union citizens outside ECOWAS, Tunisians apply online for a free Electronic Travel Authorisation (single entry, valid 90 days) on Ghana's official eVisa portal.
  • Chad: apply online (since 11 May 2026). Every visa for Chad is now issued only through the official evisa.td platform, with no embassy visit. See Africa's visa changes in 2026.
  • Nicaragua: consulted visa (since 16 February 2026). Tunisia is not on the exempt list of Nicaragua's Disposición 002-2026, so Tunisians need a "visa consultada" that Nicaragua's migration authority approves before the trip. See Nicaragua's new visa list.
  • Cabo Verde: visa needed before you travel (since 1 January 2026). Tunisia is on the list of nationalities that can no longer get a visa on arrival. Apply for a visa at a Cabo Verde embassy before departure. See Africa's visa changes in 2026.

Hold a US, UK or Schengen visa? More doors open

Some countries relax their rules for Tunisians who already hold a valid US, UK or Schengen visa or residence permit. A Schengen visa opens 14 extra destinations, a US visa 9 and a UK visa 8. These are the extra destinations a Schengen visa opens:

Open the live list for the Tunisia passport with a Schengen visa: conditions, sources and flights

Each country has its own conditions, such as a multiple-entry visa or one you have already used. They are listed with their official sources on the held-visa pages: Schengen visa, US visa, UK visa and Schengen residence permit.

Changing planes on the way

Cheap flights often connect in Europe or North America. For Tunisians:

  • Schengen area: you can change planes airside in most Schengen airports without a visa. The exception is Romania, which requires an airport transit visa from Tunisians. You don't need it if you hold a valid Schengen visa or residence permit, a valid visa for Canada, Japan or the US, or a US, Canadian, Japanese or UK residence permit.
  • United Kingdom: Tunisians don't need a direct airside transit visa to change planes in a UK airport without passing border control.
  • United States: there is no airside transit. You need a US visa even to change planes, and a valid US visitor (B) visa covers it.
  • Canada: Tunisians need a Canadian visa to transit, unless they are US permanent residents.

The "Changing planes" section of the Tunisia passport page keeps these rules up to date.

How we keep this list honest

Our base dataset is a public list of visa requirements for every passport. We compare the Tunisian passport with lists that cite IATA Timatic, the database airlines check at boarding. Whenever they disagree, we change our data only after confirming the rule with an official government source or a legal text. A few destinations are still being checked, so treat any single entry as a starting point and confirm it before you travel.

Rules can change without notice. Before you book, confirm with the destination's official immigration website or embassy.
