The newly deployed Integrated Customs Management System (ICUMS) has generated some GH₵490 million in its first 17 days of operation.
This compares favourably with the average monthly revenue collections of about GH₵942 million monthly from January to May this year from the country’s entry points when the old system deployed by Ghana Community Network (CGNet) was in use.
This is in spite of the teething challenges that bedevilled the system in its first weeks of operation at the port after taking over from West Blue and the Ghana Community Network (CGNet) customs management systems.
