The Government of the DRC has initiated the migration from the ASYCUDA++ Customs Management System to ASYCUDA World, a web-based platform, in partnership with UN Trade and Development (UNCTAD). Many Customs offices in East DRC are still using  ASYCUDA ++ or are using a manual system to clear goods. TMA, in partnership with the Directorate General of Customs (DGDA) and UNCTAD is supporting this initiative to fill the gap in the deployment of ASYCUDA World in eastern DRC. The project is in line with TMA’s goal to reduce transport costs and time on main trade corridors. It will streamline Customs procedures for faster clearance with less paperwork, and increase the country’s tax revenue generated from taxes on trade. Meanwhile, the DGDA will strengthen compliance and adopt better risk-based approaches to controlling borders. The work of the DGDA will be supported by UNCTAD, which will provide installation, training and maintenance in support of ASYCUDA World.
