Single Window as an enabler for e-commerce development


28 April 2017
04:00 - 04:45 hrs. Room XXVI, Palais des Nations
Geneva
, Switzerland

e-Commerce is growing with each year. Goods sold directly to consumers need to cross borders and often fulfill regulatory requirements to enter into the consumer's economy. Single Window is a facility established to help traders with all their regulatory requirements when crossing a border.

So, what is the relationship between e-Commerce and Single Window?

This session will seek to explain the base principles of a Single Window, its implementation and its relationship to e-commerce.

The panel will also launch the African Alliance for e Commerce's (AAEC) updated guide to Single Window implementation.

This guide goes through the practical steps that governments need to consider in their planning and roll out of Single Window projects and provides further guidance based upon the recommendations of the UN Centre for Trade Facilitation and electronic Business (UN/CEFACT).
