The Abu Dhabi Department of Economic Development (ADDED) launched Abu Dhabi Trade Information Portal (TIP), the emirate’s integrated digital solution to facilitate import, export, and re-export procedures, thereby enhancing transparency, reducing costs, and improving operational efficiency. The platform was launched in collaboration with Abu Dhabi Customs and Maqta Gateway, part of Abu Dhabi Ports Group’s Digital Cluster. The platform was launched during the inaugural Abu Dhabi Business Week, held from 4 to 6 December under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Khaled bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Chairman of Abu Dhabi Executive Council. As per Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, these digital trade platforms can reduce the time spent on customs compliance by up to 50 per cent, and lower operational costs associated with brokers and intermediaries between US$ 100 and US$ 1,000 per transaction.
