Online platform to check non-tariff barriers could ensure success for AfCFTA
This is one of the non-tariff barriers that make intra-African trade costly. NTBs as they are called are a range of restrictive regulations and procedures imposed by government authorities like customs officials that discourage the bulk of African cross border traders. The barriers include difficulties with import bans, licenses or non-recognition of documents presented by traders. Micro, small and medium-sized companies, informal traders, youth and women play a crucial role in African trade but are disproportionately impacted by NTBs due to their limited resources and access to information. Many of them know that it is easier to trade outside the continent than within it.
