I hope that same applies to you! :) Good luck! Hey Dawn,

I will be arriving in Zambia (from Botswana by ferry) with the tour -will I be able to obtain a visa at the boarder with a UK passport- and if so, will they need payment in $'s or £'s. Thanks Hi,

If so, you can definitely get a tourism visa on arrival (assuming all other documentation is in order, ie: passport). I have made some phone calls for you and am assured that nothing has changed regarding Zambian visas in the last few days. Hope that helps! :) Hey Liz,

You certainly don't need it when getting your visa at the border so I can only assume you are applying in advance through an embassy? To be on the safe side if you have to have a statement, I would print one off yourself but then take it to the bank to be stamped as official and that should be sufficient. Good luck! Hey Amy,

If not what other ways are there to replace the bank statement? Will wage slips suffice? Amy Hello Tania
