United Kingdom-Anguilla-British Overseas Territory: Technical Assistance Report-Modernization of the Customs Legislative Framework, (USA: International Monetary Fund, 2023) accessed December 7, 2024

Summary

The authorities in Anguilla sought technical assistance from CARTAC to conduct a comprehensive review if its customs legislation. It is recognized that the existing legal framework for customs is outdated and does not have the requisite foundation to support the modernization of Customs. The customs and Ministry of Finance have requested that the primary legislation be replaced by a completely new customs act based on the CARICOM model legislation for customs and, where appropriate to the context of Anguilla, also incorporates the provisions of the WTO TFA and WCO SAFE Framework.
