Arriving in Kigali by plane

Country forums / Africa / Rwanda

Hi,
I hope you can help me.
I'm planning to go to Rwanda by air, but than I would like to take a trip by bus to Arusha, Tanzania.
My returning ticket by plane will be from Tanzania.
Do you know if immigration in Kigali will let me in without booked flight from Kigali?
Thanks
Dreida

Maybe I got lucky but I never had to show any papers for my way out of any African country, including Rwanda.

Do not you think you should get in touch with a Rwandan High Commission!

Travel info retrieved and collected from friends and forums should rather be considered only as a bonus, and since they are case-based scenarios, in their majority, they should in no way be perceived as a common value which has an invariable denominator. Therefore it`s paramount that any traveller makes an effort and takes their inquiry to the relevant authorities and agencies in the first place. And in your case, I believe any Rwandan High Commission would be happy to provide you with up-to-date primary sources right from their books – as Rwandan High Commissions are very helpful in solving such queries.
