Tanzania–Turkey relations are the foreign

relations between Tanzania and Turkey. The Turkish embassy in Dar es Salaam first opened in 1979,[1] although the Ottoman Empire had previously opened a consulate in Zanzibar, now a part of Tanzania, on March 17, 1837.[1]

Diplomatic relations

Turkey had friendly relations

Che Guevera[3] to use Tanzania during his failed intervention in the Congolese civil war.[3]

After Julius Nyerere’s retirement, relations with Tanzania improved[3] because of Tanzania's progress in democratization[3] and social progress.

Economic relations

  • Trade volume between the two countries was 151 million USD in 2015.[1]

    Kilimanjaro since December 4, 2012.[1]
