Transafrik has been in operation since 1984. It is a cargo airline, with airplane registration in the Republic of Sao Tome e Principe, is currently working on contracts for the United Nations and has previously been on contract for the WFP (World Food Program) during the civil war in Angola for relief support. In 2006 Transafrik International was approached by the UN, which is, its main contractor in Africa, to re-register the fleet to another nation for aviation safety reasons. Initial approaches were conducted to re-register the fleet from Sao Tome e Principe (S9) to Uganda (5X). However until 2008 all airplanes are still registered in Sao Tome e Principe.
The airline is privately owned, while the management or location of the Headquarters are not clear or transparent. Legally the company is registered in Guernsey, Channel Islands of England, while there is operational offices in Entebbe, Uganda, Luanda, Angola and an adminstrational unit in Kempton Park, South Africa.
