Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (ZIMRA) officers stationed at the Beitbridge border post have reportedly gone into panic mode following the release of a list of vehicles which are alleged to have been fraudulently imported into the country.
The News Day reports that there are ZIMRA officials who, together with some fraudulent shipping agents connive to rob the taxman so that owners retain some money which they would share.
The alleged panic came after ZIMRA released a statement urging owners of cars listed in a statement to visit ZIMRA offices for verification purposes. The statement which was followed by a list of the vehicle registration numbers, chassis numbers, vehicle type and its owner’s name read:
The Commissioner-General of the Zimbabwe Revenue Authority is hereby notifying the owners of vehicles listed below to visit Zimra loss control offices at ZB Centre corner First Street and Kwame Nkrumah in Harare for vehicle registration verification. The vehicle owners are instructed to bring the vehicle together with all customs clearance documents pertaining to their vehicles not later than 23 November 2019.
