TASAC Letter – KWALA Compliance

We’d like to share an important update that may impact your cargo movements in Tanzania.

On 1st August 2025, the Tanzania Shipping Agencies Corporation (TASAC) issued a directive stating that, effective 4th August 2025, all port-related services for transit shipments—including customs clearance, inspection, documentation, and cargo release—will now be handled exclusively at Kwala Dry Port.

At Maersk, your cargo journey is our priority. We are actively engaging with all relevant stakeholders to understand the full implications of this change and to ensure a seamless transition for your shipments. Our goal is to minimize any disruption and continue delivering the reliable service you expect from us.

We’ll keep you informed with timely updates as more details become available. In the meantime, if you have any questions or would like to discuss how this may affect your operations, please don’t hesitate to contact your local Maersk representative. Our teams are here to support you every step of the way.

Thank you for your continued trust in Maersk.
