eTariff - AfCFTA

A customs union is a trade bloc which is composed of a free trade area with a common external tariff. Member countries set up a common external trade policy, which increases economic efficiency and establishes closer political and cultural ties between the member countries.

State Parties are the AU Member States that have ratified the AfCFTA Agreement or acceded to it, and for which the AfCFTA Agreement is in force. Only the State Parties will have rights and obligations under the AfCFTA Agreement.
