The Department of Civil Aviation of Zambia is the civil aviation authority of Zambia. It was initially established in 1954 by Federal Act 10 as a Directorate to oversee all aspects regarding civil aviation within the borders of the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland,[1] later split into Northern and Southern Rhodesia, and Nyasaland. Control of the body was transferred to the Republic of Zambia when Northern Rhodesia gained its independence in 1963.
