The Faroe Islands is an autonomous territory of the Kingdom of Denmark, located in the North Atlantic Ocean between Norway and Iceland. Residents of the Faroe Islands hold Danish passports and follow the same Tanzania visa requirements as Danish citizens.
What Passport Do Faroe Islands Residents Hold?
