Ethiopia Considering the Reduction of Capital Required to Import Tracker Devices
The Revenues and Customs Authority of Ethiopia is considering the reduction of the 20 million birr capital required of IT
companies interested in supplying the electronic cargo tracking devices to be installed on freight tracks traveling to and from Port Djibouti.
The tax authority has not certified any suppliers yet because the established requirement proved to be a deterrent according to sources.
Complaints received from the IT sector has led ERCA officials to re-evaluate their requirements based on an assessment of practices in place in other countries.
