Can this car get in?

⛔ Right-hand drive only: China-market LHD cars cannot be imported — needs the RHD version
• Who can import: Individuals and companies may import; a TIN is required and clearance goes through a TRA-licensed agent
• Pre-shipment inspection: TBS PVoC pre-shipment inspection (CCIC / Intertek / TÜV etc., about $150–250 per car; arriving without it costs a 30% CIF penalty)
• No age ban on used cars; the exact age-based excise bands still need checking, so cars over 8 years will cost more than shown here
• Used cars are not taxed on invoice value — TRA's Used Motor Vehicle Valuation System is mandatory
• Right-hand drive; main port Dar es Salaam

Rules and sources

EAC Common External Tariff: 25% base import duty on passenger cars (as of 2026) ↗ official 2026-09-06

Dar es Salaam is the main gateway for car imports into Tanzania, a right-hand-drive market. Passenger cars pay the 25% EAC common external tariff, excise of 5% / 10% by engine size (0% for battery-electric), 18% VAT, plus RDL 1.5%, wharfage 1.6% and a 0.6% customs processing fee. ⚠ The age-based excise surcharge could not be found in the Finance Act 2025 and is left out of this calculation, so cars over 8 years will cost more than shown. A TBS PVoC certificate is mandatory before shipment (30% CIF penalty otherwise), and used cars are valued on TRA's official database.
