Customs Reforms and Modernisation in Lesotho: A Conduit for National World Trade Organisation (WTO) Trade Facilitation Agreement (TFA)Implementation
Noting the challenges in implementation of commitments under this Agreement by developing and least developed countries, I argue that there is potential for Customs administrations to act as conduits for WTO TFA implementation through their reform and modernisation initiatives. To demonstrate the feasibility of this approach, I highlight the achievements realised through Customs reforms and modernisation by Lesotho in the area of trade facilitation.
