In Tanzania religious organizations must register at the Ministry of Home Affairs on the mainland and with the chief government registrar on Zanzibar. On 27 September 2004, the Registrar of Societies of the Ministry of Home Affairs of the United Republic of Tanzania registered the Church of Scientology Mission of Kilimanjaro as a religious organization.
“It is hereby certified that the Church of Scientology has been registered under the Societies Ordinance of 1954.”
