The Ghana Institute of Freight Forwarders (GIFF), the Association of Customs House Agents of Ghana, the Freight Forwarders Association of Ghana, and the Customs Brokers Association of Ghana, along with other several trade associations will lead peaceful demonstrations to highlight exploitative practices by shipping lines operating within the country.

Key Issues

Chief among the complaints is the imposition of arbitrary charges such as local administrative fees, container cleaning fees, and empty container fees.
