AUTOMATION AT BORDER CROSSINGS: HOPE FOR IMPROVING THE ECONOMY AND COMBATING CORRUPTION
Since the fall of the dictatorship in 2003, Iraqis have dreamed of transforming the state system from paper to automation through the electronic governance portal.
Border crossings, customs, and taxation are among the departments that suffer most from corruption and waste, which costs the state treasury huge sums estimated at $7 billion annually.
Hope in the Sudanese government:

Reducing human interference in monitoring, evaluation and demarcation processes.
Providing a detailed statistical information base on the country’s foreign trade.
Availability of speed in completing customs transactions.
Great countries are role models:
Great countries tend to keep pace with technological progress by following a strategy of reducing expenses and maximizing revenues, and this can only be done by making governance an integral part of the structure of building an institutional state.

This support contributed to achieving a significant and clear leap and improvement in the Authority’s work.
