The Egyptian Cabinet approved a draft decision regarding the lists of customs reductions and appendices to the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA). This was approved recently during its weekly meeting.

The AFCFTA is a comprehensive agreement that governs areas of cooperation among the member states. It includes subjects like trade in services and investment, competition regulations, liberalization of commodity trade, intellectual property rights protection, and provisions for dispute settlement. These steps, analysts say, will enhance Egypt’s intra-trade with other member states in the continent.
