The Tanzania Revenue Authority is considering extending the validity period for cooking oil import permits to ensure uninterrupted supplies and ease trade between Mainland Tanzania and Zanzibar. During a visit to Unguja, the TRA Commissioner General stated that while 25,000 tonnes of the initial 45,000-tonne permit quantity have been imported, the authority is reviewing the possibility of extending the permit issuance period due to known market demand. The authority is also planning a special port area for Zanzibar cargo.
