Clearance Port

Beira (transit)

Malawi is landlocked and depends on a corridor that runs through Mozambique, so the route is inseparable from the purchase.

The Beira corridor

Most units clear at Beira and travel by road to Lilongwe and Blantyre. Because the sea leg ends elsewhere, the transit documents are as important as the export documents.

Duty stack

Malawi layers duty, surtax and VAT, with the total rising for older units; right-hand drive is required and documents must be complete before release.
