What is supplier vetting before a Tanzania payment?
A practical risk screen — not a full legal opinion — of whether the counterparty looks real, authorised and consistent with the claimed payment route before capital moves.

Investors who need counterparty checks before deposits, JV papers or exclusive supply commitments.
Incomplete counterparty documents, unverifiable bank details, and licence claims that do not match the payment route.
Counterparty name, registration claims, proforma or contract, and bank account details.
Scope of this service route.
- Company status and registration checks
- Ownership / beneficial-owner screening signals
- Licence and permit coherence review

Questions investors ask before starting.
Is vetting the same as a full legal opinion?
No. It is a practical risk screen for investor decisions; escalate to counsel where needed.
When should vetting happen?
Before deposit payments, JV signing or exclusive supply commitments.
What should a supplier or counterparty screen cover before payment?
At minimum: legal identity, beneficial ownership, licence claims, adverse media/sanctions signals, document consistency and payment-route risk. Escalate when capital exposure is material.
Send the counterparty file to the vetting desk.
Share registration claims, contract or invoice, and bank details so we can confirm the screen, gaps and next paid action.
