The Zambia Revenue Authority manages customs at each post profiled by the WFP Logistics Cluster 1,2. Hours come mostly from undated WFP profiles read on 24 October 2026 and can change 1. Jimbe and Mbala hours come from an undated Cross-Border Road Transport Agency (C-BRTA) table. The table cites no source and other tables in the same document cite sources accessed in 2018 27. A blank cell means no source read for this page confirmed the fact. Check with ZRA before travel.
