Title 1) What is Single Customs Territory (SCT)?
Description

Single Customs Territory is the full attainment of the Customs Union achievable through minimization of internal border controls and removal of trade restrictions between Partner States ultimately resulting in free circulation of goods in the Customs Territory.


Free Circulation of Goods


Goods originating from one Partner State to another within the Customs Union are not subjected to Customs Tariff as long as they meet the EAC Rules of Origin Criteria. Goods imported from outside the Customs Union, which have been entered and released for home consumption, are free to circulate within the Community. Each category requires unique modalities depending on the customs regime under which they are declared.
