Quick answer: importing a used Honda Civic into Tanzania lands at roughly $9,175–$17,300 all-in — FOB China $5,500–$12,000 plus freight, 25%+ import duty and clearance.

FOB price: $5,500–$12,000 depending on year and mileage.

Landed cost: $9,175–$17,300 = FOB + ocean freight (~$1,800) + 25%+ import duty + port clearance.

Import duty: expect 25%+ import duty, usually calculated on the CIF value rather than the invoice price. Ask us for a worked CIF breakdown for the exact car.

Age limit: Tanzania caps imported used cars at 10 years from first registration — we check the exact plate/registration date before quoting.

Steering side — read this first: Tanzania drives on the left and requires right-hand drive (RHD). Most cars sourced from China are LHD, so for RHD markets we source genuine RHD units (common for Japanese and British-market models) or arrange a compliant RHD conversion before export.

Clearance port: cars clear at Dar es Salaam.

Our Civic stock: 26 units, model years 2013–2024, 12,000–200,000 km, 1.5T 177PS L4. Send the target year and quantity on WhatsApp for a confirmed quote.
