Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>The East African Community (EAC) Secretariat announced on April 3 that it is set to conduct a high-level sensitisation mission aimed at reviewing the performance of various One-Stop Border Posts (OSBPs).<\/p>\n

The exercise will be carried out at selected borders within the bloc, it indicated.<\/p>\n

OSBP is a border facility that combines two stops for national border control processing into one and consolidates border control functions in a shared space for people exiting one country and entering another.<\/p>\n

Under this concept, multiple border agencies cooperate and collaborate with each other, and effectively coordinate their activities to maximise their operational efficiency, according to information from EAC.<\/p>\n

The sensitisation mission is scheduled to commence on April 9 and shows the EAC’s commitment to fostering cooperation, enhancing trade facilitation, and improving cross-border procedures, the secretariat said in a statement.<\/p>\n

The primary objective of the mission is to follow up on the performance of OSBPs, identify areas for improvement, and assess the implementation of agreed action plans, it added.<\/p>\n

Through engagement with various stakeholders including officers in charge of the OSBPs; customs, immigration, standards, and port health officers; as well as representatives of other border agencies, cross-border traders, and local government authorities, the secretariat said it aims to address challenges and streamline processes at these critical facilities.<\/p>\n

Selected borders and mission dates are Nimule\/Elegu, South Sudan side, on April 9; Mutukula\/Mutukula, Uganda side, on April 12; Rusumo\/Rusumo, Rwanda side, on April 15; Kobero\/Kabanga, Burundi side, on April 16; and Namanga\/Namanga, Tanzania on April 19.<\/p>\n

The mission, the secretariat pointed out, will take place at the respective OSBPs ensuring comprehensive coverage and engagement, and underscores the significance of continuous sensitisation and capacity-building efforts at EAC borders.<\/p>\n

Similar missions are planned for other OSBPs in June and July 2024, reaffirming the commitment to enhancing awareness and compliance with cross-border procedures, it observed.<\/p>\n
