South Sudan Officials implemented a new regulation in 2019 that made ECTN mandatory for all shipments to South Sudan. An ECTN must accompany all cargoes to South Sudan. If not, there will be severe outcomes and a significant amount of penalty fees. But if you are using South Sudan as a transit country, in some cases, you might not need to get an ECTN certificate.
Although it is mandatory and crucial, it is still one of the most missed and overlooked certificates.
