INVESTING ACROSS EAST AFRICA.
One customs union. Eight investment regimes, and not one of them recognises another’s certificate.
The Common External Tariff is common in fact. Everything an investor files is not: the threshold runs from nothing in Rwanda to US$500,000 in Tanzania and Burundi, and the reserved list changes at every frontier. Every figure carries the institution that issues it.
- All eight Partner States, one page each: registry, investment authority, capital threshold, headline rate and the gate that controls entry
- Where the capital went, and where the work is: manufacturing took a third of all investment, agriculture 6.6 per cent of it and 45 per cent of the direct jobs
- What a zone is worth, and the export undertaking that rides with it in five of the six regimes
- Getting profit out: the capital account clause by clause, and the 365-day trigger that requires registration first
- Where the record stops: six classes of figure printed as gaps rather than filled from commentary
