Port of Lobito Trials Singapore-developed Maritime Single Window

Delegates from Angola and a representative of IMO have been able to test out the maritime single window (MSW) platform developed by the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore for the Port of Lobito, Angola. The opportunity came at a business process study workshop in Singapore (27-30 June), as part of the Single Window for Facilitation of Trade (SWiFT) Project. 

The SWiFT pilot project was launched by IMO and Singapore last year to support medium-sized ports to meet the requirements of the International Convention on Facilitation of International Maritime Traffic (FAL Convention) and facilitate interconnectivity between ports worldwide.
