ARUSHA, Dec. 23 -- TANZANIA is considering establishing a special one-stop centre bringing together a dedicated police unit and the Immigration Department to handle all matters related to tourists and other foreigners entering, visiting or working in the country.

The move follows the success of the Tourism and Diplomatic Police Department in the Northern Zone, which has helped resolve numerous challenges facing the tourism sector.

Speaking in Arusha, Superintendent of Police (SP) Waziri Ibrahim Tenga, head of the Tourism and Diplomatic Police Unit, said the department is the first and so far, the only one of its kind in East Africa, and is internationally recognised for the services it provides to foreigners and the travel industry.
