Tanzania launches application to verify cement quality

The Tanzania Revenue Authority (TRA) has introduced a new digital verification application named Hakiki Stempu, aimed at helping consumers verify the quality of cement products and combat the sale of counterfeit and substandard cement.

Ndositwe Haonga, TRA Director for Internal Affairs, explained that Hakiki Stempu allows the public to check whether the product they are about to purchase is genuine or not by scanning the product to check if it has the right tax stamp. The app also serves as a tool for ensuring that products meet necessary standards and offer value for money.
