Frequently Asked Questions

Questions
Answered

What is border rescue at Beitbridge?

Border rescue is emergency intervention when your shipment is held at Beitbridge or any Zimbabwe border post. Tita Logistics steps in directly with ZIMRA to resolve documentation issues, duty disputes, or inspection holds — and gets your cargo released as fast as possible. Call +263 773 429 237 24/7.

How long does customs clearance take at Beitbridge?

Without proper representation, Beitbridge delays typically range from 2 days to 2 weeks. With Tita Logistics pre-clearance, we submit your ASYCUDA World documentation before your cargo arrives, cutting wait times dramatically. Emergency rescue cases are prioritised for same-day intervention.

What documents are needed for customs clearance in Zimbabwe?

Standard Zimbabwe customs clearance requires: a commercial invoice, packing list, Bill of Lading or airway bill, CBCA conformity certificate for listed goods, and a completed Bill of Entry (Form 21) submitted via ASYCUDA World. Additional sector permits apply for mining chemicals, pharmaceuticals, aviation cargo, and ATIP imports.

Is Tita Logistics available 24/7 for emergencies?

Yes. Our emergency line +263 773 429 237 is active 24 hours, 7 days a week for border rescue and time-critical clearance. Regular office hours are Monday–Friday 8:00–17:00 and Saturday 9:00–13:00. Emergency WhatsApp is also available around the clock.

How does ASYCUDA World affect my import clearance?

ASYCUDA World is Zimbabwe's electronic customs platform used for all border submissions. It enables us to lodge your Bill of Entry (Form 21) before your cargo arrives — this is the foundation of our Express Lane pre-clearance service. Accuracy on first submission is critical; errors cause delays and potential re-assessment.

What is a CBCA certificate and do I need one?

The Consignment Based Conformity Assessment (CBCA) is a pre-shipment inspection certificate now required for many categories of goods entering Zimbabwe. It must be obtained from an approved body (such as Bureau Veritas) before your goods depart the origin country. Missing it is a common reason shipments are held at the border.
