Description

On June 28, 2017, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce signed a grant agreement with the Government of Uganda worth RMB 200 million for the Customs Modernization Project. The grant agreement was signed in the Chinese capital by Matia Kasaija, Minister of Finance, Planning, and Economic Development and Dr. Qian Keming, Vice Minister of Commerce of the People's Republic of China. The grant will support the capacity of Uganda Revenue Authority (URA) to acquire latest technologies in the form of non-intrusive scanners, modernized customs risk management, supervision and communication systems, customs service and enforcement support, and border infrastructure among others. All of these advancements are intended to allow Uganda to increase the revenue collected by their Customs Agency.
