Angola, situated in southwestern Africa, shares borders with Namibia to the south, the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the north, and Zambia to the east. Its capital and largest city is Luanda, with a population of approximately 30 million people. Portuguese is the official language, reflecting its colonial history. Angola boasts a diverse culture shaped by indigenous tribes, European settlers, and the African diaspora. The country is abundant in natural resources, notably oil and diamonds.
For all maritime shipments bound for Angolan ports like Luanda and Lobito, a CNCA (Conselho Nacional de Carregadores) Loading Certificate is mandatory. This essential document, also known as the ARC Number or CNCA, is required for cargo clearance. Since 1994, Angolan Customs Officials have mandated this requirement, endorsed by the ARCCLA (Agência Reguladora de Certificação de Cargas e Logística de Angola). Compliance with this regulation is vital for seamless customs clearance of goods entering Angola through its ports.
The following documents are necessary to obtain a CNCA certificate:
- Bill of lading
- Commercial invoice
- Freight invoice (if not included in the commercial invoice)
- Application form (can be completed on your behalf)
- Import License (D.U. – Documento Único) – required since 10/02/2015
All documents should be legibly scanned and submitted via email.
Understanding Angolan Vehicle Import Regulations is crucial for vehicle importers. The Angolan Government requires an authorization letter from the ANTT (Agência Nacional dos Transportes Terrestres) for both new and pre-owned vehicles. Light vehicles entering Angola must not be older than 5 years, while heavy vehicles have an age limit of 8 years. Compliance with these regulations is essential for successful vehicle importation, aligning with the government’s focus on road safety and vehicle reliability within Angola.
