Questions about importing to Tanzania

How much does it cost to import an electric car to Tanzania?

The landed cost (CIF) is the vehicle price plus ocean freight, cargo insurance and secure-payment fees to Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. The table on this page shows real examples from our current stock; our calculator prices any car for Tanzania. Import duty and taxes are set by Tanzania's customs and are paid separately on arrival - we estimate about 47% of the landed value, as a guide only.

How long does shipping to Tanzania take?

Pre-export inspection and export documents take about a week, ocean transit is usually a few weeks depending on the route, and customs clearance adds a few days on arrival. We confirm the scheduled shipping date once payment is received, and you can follow every stage with your personal tracking number.

Is my payment safe?

You pay into the designated bank account we provide for Tanzania. Your payment is held there until you confirm the vehicle matches its agreed condition, and only then do we release it to the seller. Every order is covered by our service guarantee.
