The insurance that the chap at the border was trying to sell you IS actually mandatory. It is not insurance for the vehicle as such (which is covered by the rental company) but third-party road insurance. Most, if not all, countries in Southern and East Africa have a mandatory third-party insurance fee. In COMESA countries there is a "Yellow Card" that covers all COMESA countries. Marc, thanks for the info. According to the rental company we got the 4x4 from, they have a company wide Third Party Insurance which also covers Zambia. So according to them we did not need any additional insurance when bringing their vehicle into Zambia. And indeed the Zambian police was friendly.
