The Tanzania Investment and Special Economic Zones Authority (TISEZA) is the newly established apex body under the Tanzania Investment and Special Economic Zones Act No. 6 of 2025 which is responsible for all matters related to investment promotion, coordination, facilitation, the development and management of Special Economic Zones and advising the Government on investment and Special Economic Zones matters to continually improve the investment investment climate.
Formed through the merger of the former Tanzania Investment Centre (TIC) and the Export Processing Zones Authority (EPZA), TISEZA aims to create a streamlined, efficient, and more investor-friendly environment. This consolidation repealed and replaced the Tanzania Investment Act, 2022, the Export Processing Zones Act, 2002, as well as the Special Economic Zones Act, 2006.
TISEZA is explicitly designed to be the first and primary point of contact for all investors interested in Tanzania. This is a crucial aspect of the Tanzanian government’s ongoing reforms to streamline the investment process and create a more investor-friendly environment.
