DRC commits to solve Visas issues encountered by Tanzanian Truck Drivers

Kinshasa September 5th 2016: The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) government has agreed to swiftly address challenges facing Tanzanians in obtaining DRC Visas.

The agreement follows a meeting held today in Kinshasa between the Central Corridor Transit Facilitation Agency (TTFA) leadership led by the Executive Secretary Capt, Dieudonné Dukundane and the Chief Operations Officer, Mr Sayiba Tambwe Patient and the DRC Director General of Immigration, Mr. François Beya Kasonga.
The meeting was part of implementation of the TTFA Inter-Ministerial Council of Ministers’ directive in August to follow up on solving the Visa issue that Tanzanians encounter when entering in DRC.

The main issue was the disparity on costs of the Visa, depending on which border Tanzanians were entering DRC. Now DRC has directed all immigration officials to solve this problem affecting Tanzanians.

The meeting which was facilitated by TTFA was also attended by the Ambassador of DR Congo to Tanzania, H.E. Jean Pierre Mutamba and other DRC senior officials.
At the end of the meeting it was agreed that parties should conduct a joint tour on ground as soon as possible and resolve the matter once and for all.
Commenting on the move the CCTTFA Executive Secretary Capt. Dieudonne Dukundane hailed the high level engagement and commitment from the DRC Government and committed to facilitate a tour on ground by early Oct 2016 to check the effectiveness of the directive.
