Yes, Zambia has restrictions on certain goods, such as hazardous materials, counterfeit products, and items that do not meet Zambian standards. Importers should check the Zambian Bureau of Standards and ZRA for specific regulations. Ensuring compliance with these regulations can help avoid delays and penalties.
