The Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (ZIMRA) has announced that the integrated Payment After Assessment (PAA) system for commercial declarations is now live, effective February 8, 2026. This marks a significant milestone in ZIMRA’s digital transformation, enhancing trade facilitation and upgrading the country’s customs clearance process.
The system ensures that duties and taxes are paid only after entries are assessed, reducing clearance times. Payments are processed through regulated financial institutions, enhancing accountability and traceability. The system has automated reconciliations and strengthened audit trails, thus promoting better governance.
