Burkina Faso is a landlocked country situated in West Africa. It is bordered by Mali, Niger, Benin, Togo, Ghana and Ivory Coast. Burkina Faso is a member of the West African Monetary and Economic Union and the Organization for the Harmonization of Business Law in Africa.
Export/Import Requirements
Burkina Faso is open to trade and the government is looking to encourage trade and investments. Customs duties (apart from oil) have been reduced from 200% to 66%. Substantial income is generated by the VAT levied from customs duties and excise duties. In the context of UEMOA (West African Economic and Monetary Union), Burkina Faso has regulated its tariff structure and as a result goods produced in UEMOA are exempt of import tax.
For businesses set up in Burkina Faso will be soon easier to import and export goods thanks to a Customs Procedures Facilitation project being implemented by ICF and the Government of Burkina Faso. These changes are expected to reduce the time for the pre-clearance process from 15 days to 3 days. Instances of fraud, forgery and corruption are expected to reduce significantly as transparency increases in the process of issuing documents required for export and import.
Goods exported to the country must be coupled with the following documents:
- 4 copies of the invoice indicating the FOB value of goods
- certificate of origin or EUR which is available for the importer or banks
- phytosanitary certificate for unprocessed vegetable products
