PRAZ supplier registration cost in Zimbabwe
Short answer
Amashad charges $120 to register your business as a supplier with the Procurement Regulatory Authority of Zimbabwe. The fee covers category and sub-category selection, assembly of the compliance document pack and lodgement of your registration so you can bid for government and parastatal tenders.
Government and parastatal buyers in Zimbabwe may only award contracts to suppliers registered with PRAZ, in the categories that match what they are buying. Picking the wrong category is the quiet reason many registered suppliers never see a relevant tender.
Registration also depends on a stack of supporting documents — incorporation, CR14, tax clearance and NSSA compliance — which is why we assemble the pack before lodging.
