Zimbabwe to allow import of used vehicles older than 5 years

Zimbabwe government will allow import of used vehicles older than 5 years

The Zimbabwe Government has indefinitely suspended the ban on used car imports that are five-years-old and above while the importation of Left-Hand-Drive vehicles will not be allowed from November 1, 2011.

The bans are provided for in Statutory Instrument 154 of the Road Traffic Act. No Left-Hand-Drive vehicle will be allowed into the country from October 2011 on. But those already in the country and imported by October 31, 2011were allowed to continue plying the country's roads until they outlive their economic lifespan

The new arrangement will be provided for in the amended Statutory Instrument to be gazetted soon. Transport, Communications and Infrastructural Development Minister Nicholas Goche told journalists in October 2011 that after consultation on the proposed ban, Government had decided to lift it until the economy improves. When the ban was introduced, the minister said Government expected that the economy would have improved and that capacity utilisation by industry by end of 2009 would be around 60 percent.

Zimbabwe Import Duty

Zimbabwe uses the GATT system of tariff codes. Imports are subject to duty, import tax, and surtax. Capital goods are exempt from all three. Duties mostly range between 15% and 20% but can go as high as 60%. The surtax is 10% and sales tax is charged the importer as the end-user. The customs duty for textiles is 5% and the duty for clothes is 15%. Zimbabwe is a member of the 14-nation Southern African Development Community (SADC), which was formed to promote "regional integration," and the 22-nation Preferential Trade Area (PTA) of Eastern and Southern Africa, which provides reduced duties on trade between member countries.

Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe Country Description By Zimbabwe largest Car 4WD pick-up SUV Dealer exporter

Thailand largest new and used car 4WD vigo triton exporter to Zimbabwe jim is Thailand's, Australia's, New Zealand's and Untied Kingdom's largest exporter to Zimbabwe. A landlocked country of south-central Africa, Zimbabwe (formerly Rhodesia) lies between the Zambezi River on the N and the Limpopo River on the S. It has an area of 390,580 sq km (150,804 sq mi), with a length of 852 km (529 mi) WNW–ESE and a width of 710 km (441 mi) NNE–SSW. Comparatively, the area occupied by Zimbabwe is slightly larger than the state of Montana. Bounded on the N and E by Mozambique, on the S by the Republic of South Africa, on the SW by Botswana, and on the NW and N by Zambia, Zimbabwe has a total boundary length of 3,066 km (1,905 mi). Zimbabwe's capital city, Harare, is located in the northeast part of the country.

The word "Zimbabwe" is derived from the Shona dzimba dza mabwe (house of stones). It has been written that one of the most striking features of Zimbabwe is the depth of its historical roots; that the past of Zimbabwe can be followed, through both traditions and documents, as a continuous story for five centuries. With more than a passing resemblance to a magazine's "best of" issue cover, Zimbabwe is a beautiful country to visit, with hinterlands which are positively bursting with gorgeousness, both four-legged and furry, wild and winged, spiky and splashy.

Zimbabwe Vehicle Information

Zimbabwe is a Right Hand Drive country and Jim Autos Thailand, Jim Autos Singapore, Jim Autos United kingdom, Jim Autos New Zealadn and Jim Autos Australia are exporting Right Hand Drive new and used Toyota Hilux Vigo, Toyota Hilux Tiger, Mitsubishi L200 Triton, Nissan Navara and a host of other 4WD pickups and SUVs to Zimbabwe via Durban and Beira ports. Zimbabwe allows import of both RHD and LHD vehicles but it is safer to use RHD vehicles and bulk of our exports are of RHD vehicles.

A very good network of paved roads stretches across the countryside. Personal automobiles remain the most reliable form of transportation between cities, but the frequent lack of fuel at many Petrol stations can make long distance traveling problematic. Most travelers fill up in Harare before leaving the city, and carry adequate fuel for the round trip in portable "jerrycans".
