Importer of Record in Liberia
Importing IT equipment into Liberia presents significant challenges, primarily due to local customs requirements for both pre- and post-inspections, as well as lengthy lead times.
Additional challenges include high tariffs, transportation costs, and limited distributor availability, all of which drive up expenses. The IT sector in Liberia is further complicated by a weak regulatory environment and vulnerability to cybersecurity threats.
Recognizing the need for ICT improvements to boost the economy, the Liberian government has recently announced policy changes and plans to enhance infrastructure and services.
