SARPCCO, the Southern African Regional Police Chief Council Organisation is an official forum comprising all the police chiefs from Southern Africa. SARPCCO was established in 1995 at a conference of Police Chiefs at Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe, and it was decided that the Council of Police Chiefs should meet at least once a year. A Secretariat, comprising officers from the member countries, has been formed as the permanent administrative and technical body through which SARPCCO is operating. The newly created Interpol Sub-Regional Bureau in Harare is utilised for this purpose. INTERPOL provides the means of effective communication between the member countries as well as performing all administrative tasks originating from the operation of SARPCCO. The member countries of SARPCCO are Angola, Botswana, Lesotho, Malawi, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa, Swaziland, Tanzania, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.

SARPCO Countries
In order to combat the illegal trafficking of motor vehicles in the Southern African region, the implementation of a unique police clearance was agreed upon by the Southern African Regional Police Chiefs Co-operation Organisation (SARPCCO) in terms of Resolution number 15 of its 4th AGM in 1999. The South African Police Service has observed that some members of the community are not aware of the procedure in obtaining SARPCCO Vehicle Clearance Certificates before they export or import vehicles to and from other SARPCCO member countries.
here are eleven active SARPCCO member countries and they are Angola, Botswana, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Tanzania, South Africa, Swaziland, Zambia and Zimbabwe. The purpose of the SARPCCO Vehicle Clearance is that the document serves as proof that a vehicle was not reported as stolen in a SARPCCO country where it had been registered before it was taken to another SARPCCO country for purposes of registration.
The following is required when applying for a SARPCCO Vehicle Clearance Certificate:
* the vehicle in question to be physically checked by the clearance officer
* the registration document of the said vehicle
* an identity document for personal identification
* passport.
The SARPCCO Clearance Certificate is issued by a suitably qualified member of the SAPS specially appointed as a clearance officer at any Vehicle Identification Section around the country. The Vehicle Clearance Certificate is issued during normal working hours and there is no cost involved for such certificate. The document is valid for 90 days from the date of issue. If the clearance certificate expires, the process must be repeated.
SARPCCO Vehicle Clearance Certificates is not the only document required for the purpose of import or export. Customs and Excise, the Department of Transport and the Department of Trade and Industry will require additional documents. In order to alleviate unnecessary delays persons who plan to import or export a vehicle are requested to make contact with their nearest clearance office. The consequence of failing to have the vehicle certified is that one might receive a stolen vehicle in the process
