50% Of Import Duty On Vehicles Now To Be Paid In Zimbabwe Dollars

Fifty per cent of duty on car imports will now be paid in local currency, according to Statutory Instrument 72A of 2022 published on Friday.

Under the new regulations, half of the import duty payable will now be paid in foreign currency and the balance in local currency at the prevailing official auction rate.

However, Government departments will continue paying 100 per cent duty in local currency, at the prevailing rates. SI 72A of 2022 reads:

IT is hereby notified that the Minister of Finance and Economic Development, in terms of section 115(3) of the Customs and Excise Act [Chapter 23:02], made the following notice:—
