Zimbabwe and Zambia will operate Victoria Falls and Chirundu border crossings around the clock starting in December. Immigration official Respect Gono said the expansion follows successful 24-hour operations at Beitbridge and Forbes posts. The measure removes time restrictions that slow trade and travel between the neighboring countries.

Both governments worked together to align schedules at entry points shared by the two nations. Gono said eliminating fixed hours reduces obstacles for merchants and travelers crossing between Zimbabwe and Zambia. The change supports the African Continental Free Trade Area goals by accelerating cargo and passenger movement across southern Africa.

Regional commerce and tourism will expand as businesses gain continuous access through major crossings. The partnership between Harare and Lusaka dates to their shared liberation history. Authorities modernized infrastructure at border facilities to handle increased traffic volumes throughout each day and night.
