Hi Angie
Your passport needs to be valid for six months after your intended return date. For more information you can visit your nearest Botswana Embassy or High Commission, or call the Department of Immigration in Gaborone: +267 374545.
All the best,

Hi Symone & BIll,

I have dual nationality Australian/Spanish - not sure which would be more beneficial to use out there. But that aside - both expire in 13 months time. Apparently to get a working visa in Botswana you need to have 3 years left on your passport, however, I am only allowed to extend my spanish passport if I have less than 6 months on it unless I get proof that there is a limit of how many months or years is legally required to be able to get the visa then the Spanish Embassy will extend it without having less than 6 months.

Thanks for your prompt responses.

I am originally form Zimbabwe my family and I have been living in the UK for 10 years. We would like to relocate to Botswana how do we go about getting visas to stay there.

I will be moving to Botswana for a year. My girlfriend (we're both american) is going to accompany me for at least 3 months. Does anyone know if she can get a work visa? I will have one, but she won't. Or does she even need one?

Thanks!

hi everyone. I am a Motswana(Botswana national) living in New Zealand. I am so pleased that you guys want to live in my woderful country. I can tell you, you won't regret the decision. There are a lot of expats and they can attest to that. For the Phillipino doctor who has been offered a job, your prospective employers should be able to arrange a work permit for you. I lived in Maun where there is loads of experts and I know some of them came as tourist and as soon as they got there they applied for a permit through an agent. My partner is Kiwi and I'm also trying to find out more about getting a work permit before we leave New Zealand, failing which he'll go as atourist and hopefully sort things out that side. Good luck to all of you. Enjoy your stay in Botswana
