Chairman Federal Board of Revenue inaugurated the head office of Pakistan Single Window (PSW) Company in Islamabad. On the occasion, Chairman FBR lauded the efforts of Pakistan Customs to roll out the Pakistan Singe Window (PSW) System almost a year before its deadline of June 2022 set under the World Trade Organization’s Trade Facilitation Agreement.
He also appreciated Customs for reducing the project cost from initial estimates of USD 163 million to USD 67 million through indigenous development effort.
The Prime Minister had tasked Customs to complete this highly transformational project for reducing time, cost, and complication while ensuring better compliances with cross-border trade regulations. To ensure that this new system is timely implemented and sustainably maintained, the PSW Company has been operationalized by FBR.
The PSW Company is now enabling the Government of Pakistan to maintain complete ownership of this mission-critical system of strategic national importance as it would handle entire cross-border trade, related logistics, and financial transactions.
Member Customs Operation stated on the occasion that Custom Administration was leveraging its expertise in automation for PSW to support a wide array of other public and private sector entities involved in the regulation of imports, exports & transit trade. The ongoing digitization of related public sector entities under this project will substantially improve their efficiency.
PSW is instrumental for Pakistan to become a preferred route for international transit and transshipment besides it will help integrate upcoming national, regional and global single window systems. PSW will boost exports, help attract FDI and enable better integration into global value chains. It will also serve as the Trade Information Portal of Pakistan
