Importing commercial goods into Zimbabwe involves more than moving cargo across the border. The correct customs documentation, supporting paperwork and accurate declaration information are essential for a smooth clearance process.

Our goal is to reduce avoidable documentation errors and keep your shipment moving from origin to final release.
We help review and organise commercial invoices, packing lists, transport documents, certificates and other supporting paperwork required for clearance.

Our ProcessThe exact documentation depends on the nature of the goods, origin, transport mode and applicable customs requirements. For commercial importations in Zimbabwe, commonly required documents include:
Submit the available commercial and shipping documents for review before the customs entry is prepared.
We check the information needed for classification, valuation and customs declaration, and identify missing supporting documents.
Once customs requirements are satisfied and the shipment is released, we coordinate the next stage of cargo movement or delivery.
For commercial imports, customs clearance is handled through the applicable customs procedures and supporting documents are submitted with the customs declaration. Where examination is required, customs may verify quantities, classification, origin, values or other aspects of the shipment before release.
Common documents include the supplier invoice, packing list, Bill of Entry (Form 21), transport documents such as a Bill of Lading, Air Waybill or Rail Advice Note, freight statements and applicable permits or certificates. The exact requirements depend on the goods and circumstances of the import.
