Namibia's ASYCUDA system allows for direct inputs by both local and foreign traders and communicates well with customs clearance system used in the region (mostly ASYCUDA). South Africa has, years after Botswana and Namibia introduced it, introduced the SAD500(Single Administrative Document) for customs clearance system yet does not allow for direct input by traders/ freight forwarders not registered in South Africa into its system ( not ASYCUDA).
