What's required to operate from Zimbabwe
Zimbabwe's tourism regulator is the Zimbabwe Tourism Authority. Company registration is handled by the Registrar of Companies and tax compliance through the Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (ZIMRA).
1. Certificate of Registration as Designated Tourist Facility
Issued by: Zimbabwe Tourism Authority
Your active Certificate of Registration as a Designated Tourist Facility. The primary credential for operating in Zimbabwe — checked annually.
2. Certificate of Incorporation
Issued by: Registrar of Companies
Proves your company legally exists in Zimbabwe. One-time document unless company details change.
3. ZIMRA Tax Clearance Certificate
Issued by: Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (ZIMRA)
Confirms your business is current with tax obligations. Renews annually.
4. Entity Summary Document

The Entity Summary lists all shareholders. Used exclusively for our KYC review.
Renewals
Both the Certificate of Registration as Designated Tourist Facility and the ZIMRA Tax Clearance Certificate expire annually. Explola sends reminders at 30, 7, and 0 days before expiry, plus a 14-day grace period afterwards to upload renewals before tours from Zimbabwe are automatically unpublished.
