Hi Bonnie,
I believe that you will ahve to deal with Brela to do this. Brela is Tanzania's central name registering authority.


I registered my company there, and it was less than a pleasant experience. Expect delays and extra costs.

Keep up up to date. I am curious to hear about registereing an NGO. I know other people who are thinking about it.

Cheers,
Ramsey

Thanks Ramsey, I know what a pain it can be to do anything here in TZ, it took us a year to get an official work permit b/c we wouldn't bribe anyone.

Thanks for the website, I will go check it out.

Google the words, "KEPA Tanzania NGO, and then click on the (pdf.) that says NGO work in Tanzania. It will pull up the document. It is long and confusing, but it may help.

just have positive perception, I didn't bribe anyone and i got a job

Erick Moshi

But now it has been reduced i am a consultant mostly dealing with the government, now i don't have to bribe any one as long as the service I'm requesting is legally accepted by the Tanzanian law

@edwardmkwelele, i understand your frustration but lets hope that the situation has improved now
