Licences valid up to September

10 Apr 2024

Botswana Energy Regulatory Authority (BERA) advises all relevant stakeholders that import licences previously issued by the authority to majority citizen oil companies will remain valid from April 1 to September 30.

A press release from BERA says the decision was made in line with Regulation 56 (2) of the BERA (Petroleum Products) Regulations of 2024 which provides for a transition period of six months.

“During this period, majority citizen owned companies shall also apply to the authority for new import licences. Any majority citizen owned company that has not made an application for a licence to import petroleum products within the transitional period shall be deemed to be unlicensed,” says the press release.
