Transit is per definition a multi-country operation, which involves multiple procedures in every country of the transit operation, which leads to complexity. The WTO Trade Facilitation Agreement suggests that each country appoints a national transit coordinator to liaise with other countries to facilitate movement under transit and to collaborate to address transit challenges. UNCTAD provides a one-week regional training course for transit coordinators focusing on concrete collaboration mechanisms that are particularly important in times of crisis such as COVID-19, with view to coordinating interventions and trade restrictions between regional trading partners.
