The Cabinet approved a draft decision amending certain provisions of Decision No. 36 of 2014 establishing the National Committee for the Customs Clearance System and Trade Facilitation Across Borders (Single Window). Prepared by the Ministry of Finance in coordination with the General Authority of Customs, the amendments aim to strengthen the committee’s role and enable it to perform its tasks according to the highest performance standards.

The Cabinet also approved several draft international agreements, including an arrangement with the United Nations concerning the organisation of the World Investment Forum 2026 in Doha.

It also endorsed draft agreements with the governments of Tanzania and Namibia on the elimination of double taxation with respect to income taxes and the prevention of tax avoidance and evasion.
