Investors-Hub: What Is A Free Trade Zone?

A Free Trade Zone is an area set aside for special economic activities. It is where a good may be landed, handled, manufactured or reconfigured, stored, and re-exported without intervention as regard to customs duties. This means it is that place in where trade activities can be carried out without delays from customs authorities.

However, only goods that are moved out of the Free-trade zone are subjected to customs duties. The Free-trade zones are usually built around major international airports, seaports or areas with geographical trade advantage. The goal is to eradicate the hindrances to trade caused by complex regulations and high tariffs from the seaport, airport or other borders.
