Your Legal Bridge into the Tanzanian Market

Entering a new jurisdiction requires more than optimism. It requires order. Tanzania’s economy offers real opportunity—but opportunity alone does not create access.
The Tanzania Entry Desk at Sacra Ignis & Co. was established to support foreign investors, diaspora entrepreneurs, and regional businesses in navigating the legal path to compliant market entry.
We offer structured legal support across company registration, immigration, investment licensing, and regulatory alignment—ensuring that your entry is not only possible, but sustainable.

Our services are designed to offer clarity and continuity from the moment you decide to invest.

Our Approach

We work quietly, carefully, and in full respect of both Tanzanian regulatory frameworks and international expectations. We do not offer shortcuts.
We offer clarity—grounded in law, refined through experience.

We understand both the Companies Act and the investment reality on the ground.

We engage with BRELA, TIC, TRA, and immigration authorities with discipline and foresight.

We collaborate where needed—with institutions, co-counsel, or private advisors—always discreetly, never competitively.

Consultations & Coordination

If you are exploring the Tanzanian market—either directly or on behalf of a client—we invite you to engage with our legal team.
Our role is not simply to register companies, but to ensure that what is registered has the right legal foundation to operate well, stay compliant, and grow responsibly.
