ASYCUDA - Automated SYstem for CUstoms DAta
In 1981 UNCTAD received a request from
the secretariat of the Economic Community of Western African States
(ECOWAS) to
assist in the compilation of foreign trade statistics in their member
States. After an initial evaluation it became quickly apparent that
this would require the involvement of Customs clearance offices, and the modernization of Customs
clearance procedures, to achieve quality
results.
