Hi, I plan to move to Zambia next year. I have heard there is import tax even on used goods. I would just like to know
other expats experiences. Did you have to pay tax on your used household goods when shipped to Zambia? Would it be better to buy everything anew, is the quality good? Thanks :)

It would be cheaper and easier to just come and buy household items from Zambia.
If you are coming for the first time in Zambia, they will subject your goods to tax, unless e.g. you declare a car a temporary importation.
Your are likely to find quality goods in a good selection of shops in Lusaka and other major cities.
