Greenland is an autonomous territory within the Kingdom of Denmark, located between the Arctic and Atlantic oceans. Residents of Greenland hold Danish passports and follow the same Tanzania visa requirements as Danish citizens.
What Passport Do Greenland Residents Hold?
Greenlandic residents are Danish citizens and hold Danish passports issued by the Kingdom of Denmark. Despite Greenland's extensive self-governance and its unique status as an autonomous territory, Greenlandic people travel internationally on Danish passports. For Tanzania travel, Greenland residents are treated identically to Danish citizens from mainland Denmark.
