Virtual Training for members of the National Approval Committee (NAC) of Burkina Faso on the ECOWAS Trade Liberalisation Scheme (ETLS), 15– 19 October 2020 / Objectives of the ETLS
The ETLS is a tool to facilitate the working of the Free Trade Area. It ensures that goods can be circulated freely without the payment of customs duties and taxes with similar effects on imports. Aside from this, it also includes putting in place measures aimed at facilitating trade by reducing red tape and paperwork at borders.
