Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>South Sudan\u2019s Finance ministry has introduced an electronic cargo tracking system aimed at enhancing its operation and boosting the country\u2019s revenue collection.<\/p>\n

In a ministerial order issued on Monday, the Finance and Economic Planning Minister, Bak Barnaba Chol directed the customs revenue division to implement the introduction of the system for all imports and exports destined from and to the East African nation.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis shall be cited as ministerial order No. 09\/2024 for operationalization of mandatory Electronic Cargo Tracking Note (ECTN) to be implemented by South Sudan Revenue Authority,\u201d partly reads the order.<\/p>\n

The electronic cargo tracking note, the ministerial order stated, will be mandatory for all goods destined to South Sudan and all goods leaving the country with immediate effect.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe sole purpose of the ECTN is to help the government of the Republic of South Sudan to maximize its revenue collection by remedying the challenges of underestimation, undervaluation, diversion of cargo and above all round-tripping,\u201d it further noted.<\/p>\n

A service charge of $350 will be levied on all commercial goods destined for South Sudan.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll importers and exporters with no exception must comply and pay the agents service charges of 350 USD as required by Memorandum of Understanding for the smooth facilitation of all goods without delays and without hurdles caused by cross border bureaucracies,\u201d it stressed.<\/p>\n

The customs division, the directive said, will implement the order to ensure compliance.<\/p>\n
