Single Window Recommandations 33-36

Recommends Governments to establish Single Window for Cross Border Trade

Defines features

bull hellip one time submission

bull of standardized information and documents

bull sharing of information amongst government agencies

bull coordinated controls and inspections of the various governmental authorities

bull Allow payment of duties and other charges

bull Be a source of trade related government information

Some evidence - time

12

In Latin America and the Caribbean

exporting takes about 18 daysimporting takes about 20 days

compared to OECD average of less than 11 days for both1

Each extra day of delay may reduce trade volume by at least 1 or about 7 if the products are agricultural

commodities 2

1 WB Doing Business Report (2012)

2 Djankov S Freund C and Pham C (2008)

Some evidence - cost

13

1 OECD (2002)

2 OECD (2003)

The costs of paperwork account for 35 ndash 7 of the

value of the goods and even can be as high as 10 ndash 15 if there are typing and other

errors1

Each 1 reduction of such costs is worth an economic

value of up to USD 43 billion worldwide 2

UNCEFACT Transport and Logistics projects

Pipeline projectBasic principle is to capture data at its source and

construct the transactionrsquos data flow as it progresses

This new approach to exchanges ensures the complete reuse of data reduces redundancy and offers to regulators and trading partners reliable information

any other syntax

Impact of UNCEFACT work

bull Recommendation 16 UNLOCODE Use of UNLOCODE helped reduce the costs of imports for a single company in China by almost USD 200 million per year

bull Recommendation 33-36 Single Window 71 economies around the world including UNECE and non UNECE Member States have established ldquoSingle Windowsrdquo (SW) using this recommendation as a basis (WB DBR) The use of Single Window saves in some of these countries up to 10 of the value of goods (WB study)

In Latin America and the Caribbean

2 Djankov S Freund C and Pham C (2008)

Some evidence - cost

13

1 OECD (2002)

2 OECD (2003)

The costs of paperwork account for 35 ndash 7 of the

value of the goods and even can be as high as 10 ndash 15 if there are typing and other

errors1

Each 1 reduction of such costs is worth an economic

value of up to USD 43 billion worldwide 2
