THE government has lifted its ban on the importation of second-hand motor vehicles that are more than 10 years old into the country provided they meet certain conditions.
In a notice in the Government Gazette last Friday, authorities say the vehicles can now be brought into the country if they meet certain criteria. These include inherited cars, those of returning citizens and diplomats.
“It is hereby notified that the minister of Industry and Commerce, in terms of section 4(1) of the control of goods (Import and Export) (Commerce) regulations, 1974, published in Rhodesia government notice 766 of 1974, hereby makes the following regulations that these regulations shall be cited as the control of goods (import and export) (commerce) (amendment) regulations, 2024.”
