Mr. Bashiru-Dine emphasised that the ECOWAS Legal Framework ensures that transit trade activities align with the overarching goals and principles of the ECOWAS community. He indicated that the Transit Trade Procedures, detailed the processes transit goods must undergo including documentation, inspections, and other required measures that guarantee compliance.<\/p>\n He elucidated on the provisions of the ECOWAS Customs Code, its role in providing rules and regulations for movement of goods across borders within the ECOWAS region. Predictability is assured for traders considering the standardization of the customs procedures. The General Provisions of the ECOWAS Supplementary Act on Transit, according to him, offer additional regulations that complement the legal framework, providing detailed guidelines on various aspects of transit trade.<\/p>\n The sensitisation was to foster compliance and facilitate effective transit trade along Ghana\u2019s transit corridors. The Transit Shipper Committee, an initiative by the Ghana Shippers Authority (GSA), is a platform to address challenges in Transit Trade along Ghana\u2019s transport corridor.Membership in the Committee includes transit shippers from Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger, and other key stakeholders in the transit value chain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Members of the Western Regional Transit Shipper Committee of the Ghana Shippers\u2019 Authority (GSA), received insight into transit procedures within the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) sub-region.
