Draft Report for SSATP –<strong>MCLI</strong> Mozambique <strong>Transit</strong> <strong>Regime</strong> Project<br />

3.1 Import <strong>Transit</strong> Evaluation<br />

3.1.1 <strong>Transit</strong> Import Costs<br />

At present, there is very little containerised import transit moving via Maputo,<br />

Mozambique to South Africa. One of the main reasons is that import cargo is subject to<br />

transit bonds under the current transit regime, which increases the cost <strong>and</strong> transit time<br />

of the cargo <strong>and</strong> hence make it unviable as South African cargo moving via a South<br />

African port is not subject to any transit regime.<br />
