Congratulations to the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia on Gazetting Its AfCFTA Provisional Schedule of Tariff Concessions (PSTCs)!
What does it mean to gazette or domesticate a trade commitment? It is an official announcement that enhances transparency, ensuring that businesses, organisations, and citizens are informed of new regulations coming into force. This marks a key step towards the full implementation of the AfCFTA Agreement.
For traders, this provides clarity and certainty, confirming that Ethiopia will grant preferential tariff treatment to eligible goods upon importation, in line with its commitments under the AfCFTA Agreement.

Gazetting, or domesticating, is the formal announcement of new regulations, ensuring public transparency and informing stakeholders,such as businesses, organizations, and citizens of AfCFTA's implementation steps. This move provides traders with clear and confirmed preferential treatment for their goods upon importation, aligning with each country's tariff commitments under the AfCFTA regime.
