Description
This workshop aims to build the capacity of clearing agents on key trade facilitation tools. Participants are trained on the Duty Remission Scheme, which allows businesses to claim exemptions on import duties for goods temporarily imported for processing or used in manufacturing. This scheme encourages value addition and reduces costs for businesses. The workshop provides in-depth training on the Single Transaction Portal (STP), a feature of Rwanda's Electronic Single Window. The STP enables agents to submit all required trade documents, such as customs declarations, payments, and permits, through one centralized system, streamlining the trade process and improving efficiency. The workshop also covers recent updates in the Electronic Single Window, including new functionalities, regulatory changes, and improvements that speed up customs clearance, ensure real-time status tracking, and reduce delays by minimizing paperwork. This comprehensive training enhances compliance and improves operational efficiency
