Tanzania's Immigration Department has rejected social media audio allegations claiming authorities confiscate passports and currency from returning citizens at border crossings while mandating visits to Dodoma's Home Affairs Ministry for interrogation. Officials characterized the circulating recordings as deliberately fabricated content designed to generate public anxiety, stating yesterday through the department's communications division that no such policies or procedures exist within immigration operations.
Authorities confirmed that Tanzanian nationals maintain unrestricted entry rights under existing legal frameworks while urging residents to disregard unofficial information channels and consult verified government sources exclusively. The department cautioned against distributing unconfirmed online material, noting that dissemination of false information constitutes a legal violation under national statutes.
