The Zanzibar Maritime Authority was established under Act No.3 of 2009 of the House of Representatives and charged with the responsibility of monitoring, regulating and coordinating activities in the maritime industry in Zanzibar and assigned responsibilities to administer the Maritime Transport Act no.5 of 2006.
As part of our safety and environmental responsibilities, we promptly investigate maritime casualties such as loss of lives resulting from overloading on boats, collision etc and take the appropriate actions.
