Top Challenges Facing Freight Forwarders in Tanzania — And How to Overcome Them

Freight forwarding in Tanzania is a dynamic industry, but it comes with its share of obstacles. At Fedrol Freighters Limited, we help clients navigate these challenges every day.

1. Port Congestion and Delays

Dar es Salaam port is a major gateway for East Africa, but congestion can cause significant delays. Efficient documentation and proactive planning are essential to minimize wait times.

2. Regulatory Compliance

Staying up to date with Tanzania Revenue Authority (TRA) requirements and customs regulations is critical. Non-compliance can result in fines or shipment holds.

3. Infrastructure Limitations

Road and rail infrastructure can impact delivery timelines, especially during the rainy season. Choosing the right logistics partner helps mitigate these risks.

4. Security Concerns

Cargo theft and loss are real risks. Working with a trusted, licensed forwarder ensures your goods are protected throughout the journey.
