Indeed, the country is open to the Atlantic Ocean with about 402 km of coastline and is served by a land transport corridor about 1,500 km long towards the Central African Republic and 2,100 km towards Chad. Despite these assets,the think tank says,\u00a0 the trade facilitation situation in Cameroon is hardly glowing. According to the 2018 World Bank Doing Business Report in 2018, Cameroon ranked 186<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0out of 190 economies in terms of cross-border trade. This is due to the fact that the country\u2019s trade with the rest of the world has gradually deteriorated over time. As a result, exports to the Economic and Monetary Community of Central Africa (CEMAC) market fell from 14.3 percent of total exports in 2007 (2nd largest importer of Cameroonian products) to 7 percent in 2015 (4th largest importer of Cameroonian products). This deterioration it noted,\u00a0 is further corroborated in 2019 by Cameroon\u2019s ranking in terms of trade integration within the Economic Community of Central African States (ECCAS). According to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?sa=t&amp;rct=j&amp;q=&amp;esrc=s&amp;source=web&amp;cd=&amp;ved=2ahUKEwigwcvW-PH0AhWGgVwKHUZbAKsQFnoECDYQAQ&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Farii.uneca.org%2FReports%2FFR_ARII2019_technical_report.pdf&amp;usg=AOvVaw3NuxkLh8v_-ALT8haOEdx_\">Africa Regional Integration Index Report 2019<\/a>, Cameroon ranked 4th out of the 11 ECCAS member countries with a score of 0.383 (on a scale 0-1), below Chad (0.409), Gabon (0.504) and the Republic of Congo (0.890). This modest score reflects the many challenges that the country continues to face in various regional integration initiatives. In the same vein, despite Nigeria\u2019s immense economic potential, Cameroon\u2019s export to Nigeria represents only 1.1% of its total export.<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4389 td-animation-stack-type1-2 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bantuvoices.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/nkafu-1-300x140.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bantuvoices.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/nkafu-1-300x140.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bantuvoices.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/nkafu-1-1024x478.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bantuvoices.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/nkafu-1-768x359.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bantuvoices.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/nkafu-1-1536x717.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.bantuvoices.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/nkafu-1-696x325.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.bantuvoices.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/nkafu-1-1068x499.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.bantuvoices.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/nkafu-1-900x420.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.bantuvoices.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/nkafu-1-600x280.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.bantuvoices.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/nkafu-1.jpg 2048w\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"140\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Cameroonian think tank says to meet the development objectives set out in its new National Development Strategy 2020-2030 (NDS30), Cameroon is now seeking to take advantage of its strategic position in the Gulf of Guinea.It noted that\u00a0 the country intends to give significant impetus to the acceleration of true trade integration at the sub-regional and regional levels. To achieve this, the country intends to conquer markets with high development potential, focusing in particular on the ECCAS (whose market is estimated at over 300 million inhabitants), Nigeria, emerging countries, the European Union (EU) and the United States of America (USA). Accordingly, Nigeria, whose market is the largest in sub-Saharan Africa, with an estimated consumer population of about 201 million in 2020 (<a href=\"https:\/\/donnees.banquemondiale.org\/pays\/nigeria\">World Bank, 2020<\/a>), has been identified as the first target in this conquest. Also, with the implementation of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), the intensification of Cameroon\u2019s trade relations with the outside world will extend to all the sub-regions of Africa with specific achievable objectives from one country or group of countries to another. However, to take full advantage of the country\u2019s strategic position, trade facilitation, which includes various border activities such as import and export procedures, transport and insurance formalities, and other financial requirements, is necessary and indispensable. The country\u2019s target is to achieve double-digit economic growth by 2035 and a 25% share of manufacturing in GDP<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4388
