PORTUGUÊS
The AfCFTA is not just a trade agreement; it is the largest economic integration project in the world since the creation of the WTO. For Mozambique, the ratification of this agreement means the gradual elimination of tariffs on 90% of tariff lines, facilitating the export of national products to markets such as Nigeria, Kenya, and Egypt.
However, liberalization brings challenges. Mozambican companies need to master the Rules of Origin to ensure their products qualify for preferential treatment.
Strategic Opportunities for Exporters:
- Protocol on Trade in Goods: Reduction of import costs for African raw materials.
- Protocol on Trade in Services: Opening of sectors such as transport, tourism, and financial services.
- Customs Facilitation: Simplification of border procedures and reduction of bureaucracy.
- Dispute Mechanism: A robust system to resolve commercial conflicts between member states.
SD&MP offers technical consultancy for companies wishing to internationalize under the AfCFTA regime. We help with origin certification, analysis of non-tariff barriers, and protection of intellectual property in multiple African markets.
