This paper will analyse a survey on a range of firm-level case studies detailing the main de jure and de facto trade barriers that companies face in doing business in Southern Africa. Reference is made to previous studies on trade barriers within the region. The relevance of the Trade Facilitation Agreement to SADC going forward will also be assessed, following which recommendations will be made regarding the policy implications for SADC’s trade agenda as well as the development impact of measures to eliminate non-tariff barriers for SADC citizens.
