Tony was fondly know as the 'Old Buffalo' due to his wealth of knowledge and experience and his commitment to the line. We would like to pass our condolences to his friends and family. Full details of these requirements and CNCB's 'cargo tracking agents' overseas can be found on OTAL's website. With effect from 1st April the Ministry has introduced a new procedure for the monitoring of imports which is based on destination inspection of goods upon arrival in Ghana. Although the new programme was scheduled to start on 1 st April, the Ministry has made provision for a changeover period.
All imports are subject to inspection upon arrival in Ghana unless specifically exempted.
Goods exempted from inspection are the same as those exempted under the previous pre-shipment inspection programme. Gateway Services Limited will be responsible for shipments arriving by sea and GSBV Company Limited will be responsible for shipments arriving by air or over Ghana's land borders. These include foodstuffs, beverages, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, second hand goods, and electrical appliance and accessories.
