سيارات Porsche المستعملة من الصين إلى Tanzania — خدمة التصدير 2026

No — and this is the first thing to settle before anything else. Tanzania drives on the left and the importation of left-hand-drive vehicles is prohibited; an LHD car cannot be cleared or registered. Our Shanghai yard is China-domestic stock, so it is left-hand drive throughout, and we cannot supply Tanzania from it. We would rather say that at the start than take a deposit on a car that can never be plated. If you need RHD, tell us the model and we will tell you honestly whether we can source it — we will not pretend the yard has something it does not.

25% import duty (the EAC Common External Tariff) plus 18% VAT, and then excise on top — banded both by engine capacity and by vehicle age. From 1 July 2026 the Finance Act 2026 (Act No. 2 of 2026) sets an age surcharge of 18% for vehicles over 8 and up to 10 years, 35% for over 10 and up to 20 years, and 40% for over 20 years; vehicles up to 8 years old pay no age surcharge at all. Published guides disagree on the exact excise bands by engine capacity, so we confirm the cc band for your specific unit with a Tanzanian clearing agent before you commit rather than quoting a number we cannot stand behind.

A TBS Pre-Export Verification of Conformity (PVoC) Certificate of Conformity, issued before shipment by a TBS-appointed agent. Since 1 November 2025 only electronic CoCs are accepted — paper certificates are no longer valid. Shipping without one exposes you to a penalty of up to 15% of CIF plus inspection on arrival, which is a worse outcome than the certificate costs.

There is no outright age ban. Some import guides still publish an 8-year or 10-year cap, but the weight of the evidence — the Finance Act 2026 and TRA-aligned guidance — is that Tanzania taxes age rather than banning it, through the age-banded excise above. Age is counted from the date of manufacture, so a unit can cross into a higher band during the 28-40 day transit; we check the band against the manufacture date before quoting, not after the car has sailed.
