GIFF (Ghana): GIFF Take Action over Cargo Tracking Note Policy

A member of the Ghana Institute of Freight Forwarders and a Lecturer at Kaaf University College John Kwame Adu Jack has sued the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) over the implementation of the Cargo Tracking Note (CTN) Policy, arguing it was illegal, unconstitutional and a breach of trade facilitation provisions.

The CTN Policy is to allow shipments to Ghana including transit Cargo and shipping exporters and forwarders at various ports of loading globally to obtain a validated CTN number to help track the right content of consignment to avoid undervaluation at the ports.
