File -> New -> Software and Database -> UML Model Diagram
After that you should see the UML groups (on the left hand side bar) , which Sequence diagram should be present.
HTH someone else.
It seems only Visio 2013 and Visio 2016 are supported, according to Microsoft docs here : MS Office Article

8I have Visio 2010 Standard. It appears to be lacking "Software and Database" templates - which is where the UML Model Diagram templates are found – barrypicker Dec 17 '12 at 21:26

2I too was afflicted with Office 2010 (and Windoze 7) this last summer, alas. I guess that makes the answer "No", in this case :-( – Roboprog Feb 22 '13 at 00:25

In Visio 2013, you can just search for "sequence" and the result will be a UML Sequence Diagram. – Duncan Jones Jun 26 '14 at 15:41

Also take a look at http://softwarestencils.com/uml/index.html. I find that these stencils are much better than the provided ones and they support the newer UML constructs to boot.

1It actually has 2 different files. I found somewhere that the file ending in _U file is for US measurements. I'm going to guess the _M is metric. – Bill Poitras Sep 11 '13 at 19:49

Microsoft Visio does support UML and Java diagram such as sequence, class and use case diagrams. You need to click on software in order for to use these diagrams.
