1. Voltage Standards

ItemStandard
Low Voltage230/400V (±10% tolerance acceptable)
Medium Voltage11kV / 33kV (6.6kV legacy lines can be customized)
Frequency50Hz
SystemBritish Standard (same as Kenya and Nigeria)

We can customize factory parameters according to the above voltage standards.


2. Certification Requirements

Tanzania requires mandatory TBS PVOC certification, without which customs clearance is not possible.

Two key issues:

1. Testing must comply with TZS standards
IEC or GB test reports alone are not sufficient.

Inspection must be completed before shipment
(The bill of lading date cannot be earlier than the inspection date)

2. Our support includes:

  • Providing technical documents, drawings, and factory test reports
  • Assisting with sample submission to TBS-approved laboratories in China
  • Supporting factory audits (if required by TBS inspectors visiting China)

3. Customs Clearance Documents

Exporter provides / Importer must have:

Exporter DocumentsImporter Requirements
PVOC CertificateTIN Tax Number
Commercial InvoiceBusiness License (Class A)
Packing ListCustoms Code
Bill of LadingIDF (submitted 72 hours before arrival)
Certificate of Origin (Form E) 

If any document is missing, cargo cannot be cleared.

However, if you choose our door-to-door service, our local agents will handle all customs clearance procedures. You only need to provide company registration documents.
