I am looking for good information on how I can ship used machinery to Zimbabwe, which is the best port to go through, Mozambique, maybe Namibia etc. Also what are the restrictions and will I need a shipping agent. Any information will be greatly appreciated.
Yes, you will need a shipping agent and a tax clearance certificate. You will also need to pay for shipping insurance. Depending on logistics companies, your best ports to ship from are in South Africa(Mozambique may be an option as well) . you will most likely need to make your purchase in dollars as well, so you'll need a bank that can assist you. Even after all this advice, consulting your business lawyer on what other government restrictions there are, will be your best option.
Hmmm .... now let's get out the old worl map and take a looksee!!! Okay, here you go, you should use the Port of Shanghai and then truck it overland across Asia and half of Africa
