Trinidad and Tobago
Operation of the single window
The Government of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago (GORTT) as part of its national strategy, in 2009, launched the Single Electronic Window (SEW) for Trade and Business Facilitation Project, branded as TTBizLink, an IT-based trade facilitation solution.
The enhancement of Trinidad and Tobago's SEW is ongoing and is complemented by an Automated System for Customs Data (ASYCUDA) System utilized by the Customs and Excise Division.
TTBizLink, is a secure business portal that provides 24/7 access to trade and business related government services by allowing parties involved in trade and transport to lodge standardized information and documents at a single entry point, in order to fulfill import, export and transit-related regulatory requirements. It is a transactional portal accessible via the link www.ttbizlink.gov.tt where private stakeholders and approving government agencies can collaborate online in a seamless and efficient manner to receive applications, process necessary approvals, and immediately communicate final decisions to applicants.
