Congo
1. Country / Territory
Brief
The Republic of the Congo
is a country located in Sub-Saharan Africa and is currently classified as a
middle-income country.
Following its independence
in 1960, the former French region of Middle Congo became the Republic of the
Congo. More
recently, despite an
improved overall economic situation, Congo is still suffering from the
lingering effects of the 1990s civil wars
that continue to weigh
heavily on economic and social recovery. The country has also been a WTO member
since 1997.
Although the country is rich
in natural resources which give it a substantial comparative advantage in
integrating into global
value chains, Congo’s
primary role in international production networks is restricted to the export
of primary inputs due to
structural obstacles.
Additional untapped resources in the country include large quantities of base
metal, gold, iron and
phosphate deposits.

4.2 Domestic and Foreign
Market Access
The Republic of The Congo
is classified as a lower middle income country in Central Africa. The past
decade has been
characterized by strong
and steady economic growth of 6 per cent per annum on average, following
incessant violent conflict
and stagnation throughout
the 1990s. With the economy essentially oil-based, the booming prices during
the 90s served to
stabilize the economic
situation. During the same period, state control increased whilst the economy
lacks liberalization in key
industries. Reforms
towards a market economy and transparency in the oil sector have been
continuously slow, despite World
Bank/IMF pressure. The
Congo has a natural infrastructure asset in the Pointe-Noire port yet road and
rail networks remain in a
poor state, leaving the
port under-utilized. The agriculture and manufacturing sectors would benefit
from improved
infrastructure, along with
electricity access and a more developed financial system. The largest challenge
in front of the country
is to promote further
economy diversification, to advance economic freedom, to resolve institutional
weakness, and to
rehabilitate the
infrastructure.
WTO, 2013, Trade Policy
review (CEMAC: Congo)
Trade
Policy and Market Access
The Republic of the Congo
is a member of the main regional economic communities, the Central African
Economic and
Monetary Community (CEMAC)
and the Economic Community of Central African states (ECCAS). The overlapping
of these
regional economic
communities with different levels of liberalization in their respective
domestic markets has created constraints
to harmonisation and
alignment. The Congo, as a member of the CEMAC customs union, adopts the CEMAC
common external
tariff (CET) and its
simple average MFN tariff rate in 2013 was 18.1 per cent. For a large
percentage of imported manufactured
goods, the tariff rates
can be as high as 3 per cent plus other duties and taxes. High non-tariff
barriers such as the overtaxing of
goods are major obstacles
to regional trade. Despite the establishment of the free trade area among CEMAC
countries, the level
of intra-community trade
remains low; distortion of CET and numerous non-tariff barriers form major
impediments to trade in the
region.
African Development
Bank, 2011, Central Africa – Regional Integration Strategy Paper, 2011-2015
Standard
Compliance and Other Relevant Import/Export Restrictions
According to the WTO, the
Congo has not yet established an operational sanitary and phytosanitary (SPS)
enquiry point, nor
has it notified any
measure (ordinary or emergency) to the WTO SPS. The Ministry responsible for
health is in charge of
applying SPS measures
relating to human health and food, and the Ministry responsible for agriculture
is in charge of applying
SPS measures and the
protection of animal health, in both cases, in collaboration with the Ministry
in charge of trade. The
Congo complies with the
provisions of the FAO International Plant Protection Convention, the FAO/WHO
Codex Alimentarius,
and the World Organisation
for Animal Health (OIE). The importation and exportation of animal and plant
products are subject to
prior authorization and
the issue of SPS certificates. On the other hand, the Congo does not have a
national regulatory
framework for
standardization and quality management, or an official technical barrier to
trade (TBT) entry point. The lack of the
SPS operation system and
TBT measures constitute a constraint on the country’s economic integration,
particularly in the
aspect of export.
Therefore, the government is seeking technical assistance and capacity building
to bring laws and regulations
up to international
standards.

and Regional Trade Agreements and Technical Barriers to Trade: An African
Perspective
4.3 Trade Facilitation
Description
According to the World
Bank Logistics Performance Index (LPI) (2012) which measures countries’ trade
logistics efficiency, the
Congo was ranked 149th out of 155 countries. All indicators except timeliness
are
below the averages of the
low income and Sub-Saharan Africa countries. This is mostly in line with the
finding
of the OECD Trade
Facilitation Indicator that the Congo performed better in the area of internal
border agency
cooperation, whilst its
performance for involvement of the trade community, advance rulings,
harmonisation
and simplification of
documents and automation is below the averages of Sub-Saharan African and low
middle
income countries. The World
Bank’s Doing Business Report (2014) also reaffirms that the Congo’s
performance in
facilitating trade across border is lower than the regional average and its
comparator
economies. In specific,
the Congo requires more documents, more days and higher cost to export and
import
than the average of
Sub-Saharan African, and the procedures are proved to be lengthy and costly.
Nonetheless, local
government has taken reforming measures to decrease the cost, time and number
of
documents. For instance,
World Bank (2014) has observed a recent implementation of prearrival processing
of ship manifests and
improvements in customs administration.

4.4 Business and
Regulatory Environment
Description
The World Bank Doing
Business Report (2013) ranked the Congo 185th out of 189 countries, one
position better than the
previous year, yet the overall performance remain deficient. Among all
indicators, the Congo
performs relatively better in the area of getting credits and resolving
insolvency.
As suggested by the 2014
Index of Economic Freedom, the Congo is ranked 169th across world in
terms of its economic
freedom. It is acclaimed by government to welcome foreign investment, yet the
lengthy and costly
administrative processes, bureaucracy, and ineffective governmental
decisionmaking
severely dampened the
country’s attractiveness to foreign business (U.S. Department of State
2013). With regards to the
regulatory environment, heavy state involvement in the leading economic
sectors, pervasive
corruption, and lack of transparency, remained major obstacles dampening
privatesector
dynamism and led to uneven
economic development. The Congolese government is also
accused of being weak in
judiciary and incapable of enforcing contracts.

4.5 Infrastructure
Infrastructure is a key to
the diversification of the Republic of Congo’s economy. According to the U.S.
Department of State
(2013), weak infrastructure,
particularly poor transportation systems, lack of broadband internet, and
inconsistent electric and
water supply, stays one of
the biggest hurdles for local economic development. For example, inefficiency
in the power sector
creates significant hidden
costs and drives power tariffs up. Power outages are frequent and 82 per cent
of businesses have
generators that cover more
than half of their needs at high costs. The country’s ICT sector has been
developed under the sector
strategy, with an aim to
become a regional ICT hub. A legal and policy framework for regulation of the
telecommunication
sectors has increased
competition in the country’s mobile phone sector. However, fixed telephone
contracts are under the public
monopoly with low
penetration, which is a constraint to raising internet penetration. The
country’s road network is currently
undergoing a major paving
and restoration effort including a new Pointe-Noire corridor towards the
Central African Republic.
The project will help to
improve transit efficiency. Financial services in the Congo are liable to the
CEMAC common banking
regulations, although the
issue of a lack of professionalism in the sector remains. The financial system
remained
underdeveloped and is
dominated by banks. In recent years, the microcredit market has been booming,
resulting in the declining
influence of the
traditional banking industry. The Congo has one of the leading ports in the
Gulf of Guinea region with the
potential to become an
ever more important hub through the massive recent investment to expand
capacity, improve connecting
infrastructure and ease
bureaucratic procedures.
