Madagascar

1. Country / Territory Brief

The Republic of Madagascar is a southern African island, situated in the Indian Ocean east of Mozambique. It is a country rich

of diverse resources and natural deposits and is the world’s first exporter of the vanilla bean. Madagascar also counts coffee,

shellfish, sugar and petroleum products as its main exports.

Despite its abundant resources, Madagascar still struggles to channel its trade revenues into a sound engine of development. In

fact, the country has had recurrent political crises which have greatly disturbed its regional and interregional trade though not

sufficiently developed. Madagascar mostly exports to France, China, the USA and Singapore, and is a member of the Southern

African Development Community (SADC), the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) and the Indian

Ocean Commission (IOC).

ITC has had a number of interventions in Madagascar with the International Trade Board of Madagascar in areas such as

public-private partnership market access, National Tariff Measures. Another collaboration is currently underway as the country

requested ITC expertise in the elaboration of a programme aimed at increasing Madagascar’s trade capacities. The country is

also eligible for projects under the Enhanced Integrated Framework.

4.2 Domestic and Foreign Market Access

Overview: Trade Policy and Business Environment

The Republic of Madagascar is classified as a low income country. The country was ranked 107th out of 132 countries in the

World Economic Forum (WEF) Enabling Trade Index 2012, which measures institutions, policies and services to facilitate trade

in countries. From 2009 and 2013 the country experienced a political coup and its most protracted period of political conflict in a

state accustomed to political disorder. The World Bank has estimated that the political turmoil cost Madagascar around USD 8

billion in lost growth, and cost the country its membership in the African Union and the Southern African Development

Community (SADC). Democratic rule was restored in January 2013 following elections, which is anticipated to improve trade

and economic development.

WEF, 2012, Global Enabling Trade Report

INDICATOR, UNITS RANK/132 SCORE

Domestic Market Access The pillar assesses the level and complexity of a country’s tariff protection

as a result of its trade policy. This component includes the effective trade-weighted average tariff

applied by a country, the share of goods imported duty free and the complexity of the tariff regime,

measured through tariff variance, the prevalence of tariff peaks and specific tariffs, and the number

of distinct tariffs.

91 4.40

Foreign Market Access The pillar assesses tariff barriers faced by a country’s exporters in destination

markets. It includes the average tariffs faced by the country as well as the margin of preference in

destination markets negotiated through bilateral or regional trade agreements or granted in the form

of trade preferences.

8 4.25

Tariff rate (%) This indicator is calculated as a trade-weighted average of all the applied tariff rates,

including preferential rates that a country applies to the rest of the world. The weights are the trade

patterns of the importing country’s reference group (2012 data). An applied tariff is a customs duty

that is levied on imports of merchandise goods.

88 8.02

Complexity of tariffs , index 1-7 (best) This indicator is calculated as the average of the following

indicators: Tariff dispersion, Specific tariffs and Number of distinct tariffs. See description of each

individual indicator for more details. Prior to averaging, values for each indicator were transformed to

a 1–7 score, using the min-max method.

12 6.70

Tariffs dispersion (standard deviation) This indicator reflects differences in tariffs across product

categories in a country’s tariff structure. The variance is calculated across all the tariffs on imported

merchandise goods, at the 6-digit level of the Harmonized Schedule.

32 6.97

Tariffs peaks (%) This indicator is the ratio of the number of tariff lines exceeding three times the

average domestic tariff (across all products) to the MFN (most-favoured nation) tariff schedule. The

tariff schedule is equal to the total number of tariff lines for each country. These tariffs are revised on

a yearly basis.

1 0.00

Specific tariffs (%) This indicator is the ratio of the number of Harmonized System (HS) tariff lines,

with at least one specific tariff, to the total number of HS tariff lines. A specific tariff is a tariff rate

charged on fixed amount per quantity (as opposed to ad valorem)

1 0.00

Number of distinct tariffs This indicator reflects the number of distinct tariff rates applied by a country

to its imports across all sectors.

5 4.00

Share of duty-free imports (%) Share of trade, excluding petroleum, that is imported free of tariff

duties, taking into account MFN tariffs and preferential agreements. Tariff data is from 2013 or most

recent year available and imports data is from 2012

105 28.35

Tariffs faced (%) This indicator is calculated as the trade-weighted average of the applied tariff rates,

including preferential rates that the rest of the world applies to each country. The weights are the

trade patterns of the importing country’s reference group (2012 data). A tariff is a customs duty that is

levied by the destination country on imports of merchandise goods

16 4.86

Index of margin of preference in destination markets, 0-100 (best) This indicator measures the

percentage by which particular imports from one country are subject to lower tariffs than the MFN

rate. It is calculated as the average of two components: 1) the trade-weighted average difference

between the MFN tariff and the most advantageous preferential duty (advantage score), and 2) the

ratio of the advantage score to the trade-weighted average MFN tariff level. This allows capturing

both the absolute and the relative margin of preference.

Trade Policy and Market Access

Madagascar has been a WTO member since November 1995 and the simple average MFN tariff applied in 2012 was 11.8 per

cent. Madagascar joined the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa’s (COMESA) free trade framework in 2005 and

the SADC in 2007; however Madagascar’s membership of SADC as well as the African Union has been suspended since 2009

due to the political crisis, but is expected to be reinstated following the return to democratic rule in January 2013. Intra-regional

trade remains poorly developed with exports to the SADC and COMESA averaging only 5 per cent of total exports since 2010.

Madagascan industrial fabric industry had enjoyed preferential access under the African Growth and Opportunity Act since

2000, with the aim to expand trade and investment between Sub-Saharan Africa and the United States; however this has also

been suspended since 2009, which led to a reduction in textile sector output of 20 per cent (Bertelsmann Stifung 2014).

Madagascar signed an interim Economic Partnership Agreement with the European Union, which came into effect in January

2013. The agreement covers market access, fisheries and official development aid.

Standard Compliance and Other Relevant Import/Export Restrictions

Madagascar submitted its first notification of its own Sanitary and Phytosanitary (SPS) regulations in 2008. In 2010, the country

submitted 7 notifications relating to food. Madagascar has benefited from technical and finance assistance with an aim to

enhance its SPS-related capacity in recent years. In 2004, Madagascar submitted a statement on the implementation and

administration of the Agreement on Technical barriers to trade (TBT). However, Madagascar is not an active member for the

TBT Committee. The country did not make any notification to the committee between 1995 and 2010.

4.3 Trade Facilitation

Description

According to the World Bank Logistics Performance Index (LPI) (2012) which measures countries’ trade

logistics efficiency, Madagascar was ranked 84th out of 155 countries and all scores except international

shipments are above the regional average scores of Sub-Saharan African and low income countries. In

particular, Madagascar’s customs logistics perform better than the top performer in low income group (Benin),

owing to a number of reforms since 2009, including: implementation of electronic data interchange, a single

window (GASYNET), risk-based inspections, and improvement of port infrastructure that has led to a

decrease in export and import times. In particular, its single-window system improved communication and

coordination between customs and the terminal port operators, and reduced both the time and the cost to

export and import. Moreover, Madagascar rolled out an online platform linking trade operators with

government agencies involved in the trade process and customs clearance. The World Bank study estimates

that exporters wait 22 days and spend USD 1, to export a standard container, whereas it takes 31 waiting days

and costs USD 2,108 for other Sub-Saharan African countries to export the same container, on average. With

regards to importing, it takes 21 days and costs USD 1,555 for Madagascar, while it takes 38 days and costs

USD 2,793 for the low-income comparator countries (World Bank 2012; World Bank 2014).

4.4 Business and Regulatory Environment

Description

The four-year-long political crisis has led to deterioration in the business climate and greater loss of control

in governance, and has worsened the living conditions of the population despite some progress in education.

The World Bank Doing Business Report (2014) confirms the poor business environment with the country

ranking 148th out of 189 economies. Among the 10 categories analysed by this survey, starting a business

has a competitive edge (ranked inside the top 30 economies globally), owing to the government’s efforts to

improve the entrepreneurial environment by lowering taxes, reducing the number of procedures and lowering

minimum capital requirements to start a businesses over recent years. On the other hand, getting electricity

and credit are ranked in the bottom 5 per cent of countries assessed. Madagascar has high cost and low

quality electricity that covers only 15 per cent of the demand, which is due to the low generation capacities,

operated by a single state owned company. The country is open to foreign investment and officially there is

no mandatory screening of foreign investment, with no discrimination against foreign investors through

special tax treatment, access to licenses or approvals. However, the weak legal and judicial environments, as

well as the lack of transparency which are subject to political corruption, are barriers to investment. Also,

capital markets remain underdeveloped and the interest rate is high, up to 45 per cent from 2007-2009.

4.5 Infrastructure

The latest WEF Global Competitiveness Report ranked the quality of overall infrastructure of Madagascar 132nd out of 148

countries. Madagascar’s overall poor infrastructure is negatively affecting its economic growth and development opportunities.

For example, the density of paved roads is estimated at 10 km in every 1,000 sq. km against 100 km in every 1,000 sq. km

Mauritius, also an island nation in the Indian Ocean. Unfair business practices can be seen among transport companies that

has led to increased transport costs. There are only two railroads in Madagascar and they are unconnected and in poor

condition. Given that agricultural products contribute 70 per cent of total export share in Madagascar and the sector employs

over 80 per cent of the country’s population. With regards to information and communications technology the sector has been

growing, owing to greater liberalisation and further investment, which lead to more than 3 per cent growth per year over the past

ten years (African Development Bank Group 2013). Mobile penetration in Madagascar increased from 4 per cent to 25 per cent

between 2005 and 2010. Prior to the sector reform of 1994, domestic telecommunication services were poor and government

controlled (WEF 2013; Bertelsmann Stifung 2012; African Development Bank Group 2013)
