General import requirements in the region
Several African countries run pre-shipment inspection and certificate-of-conformity programmes for some goods, and document requirements differ between countries. We confirm with you what the destination requires before preparing the shipment.
This is general guidance and may change. Confirm current requirements with the authorities or a customs broker in your country.
