A Study Permit is issued to a foreign national who intends to study on full time or part time basis at a Zambian Educational Institution . Children and dependants of holders of permits should apply for Study Permits in order to study at an educational institution in Zambia for a period longer than three (3) months unless the children or dependants in their own right hold Residence Permits, in which case they should ensure that the occupation on their Residence Permits reads “student”.

Note: The holder of a Study Permit shall comply with the conditions specified in the permit and shall not engage, for gain, in any activity, business, trade, employment, profession or any other thing not specified in the permit.
