Importing and registering, in brief

  1. Routes in

    Chad is landlocked. Equipment usually comes through Douala (Cameroon), partly by rail to Ngaoundéré and then by road.

  2. Cargo tracking note

    Sea shipments need a cargo tracking note (BESC) issued before loading.

  3. Customs

    Clearance is through Chad Customs. Most importers use a licensed clearing agent.

  4. Registering for road use

    Machines used on public roads must be registered and plated with the national vehicle registration authority.

General guidance only. Confirm with the official bodies or your clearing agent before you buy. Last checked October 2026.
