New customs information system launched.
New customs information system launched.
Beginning January 1, 2020, the Cameroon Customs Department had already switched its operations from Sydonia to CAMCIS. It was in a bid to officialise the shift that the government, last Friday June 5, 2020, launched the new customs information system.
The launching ceremony was presided over by the Director General of the Customs Directorate, Edwin Fongod Nuvaga, representing the Minister of Finance.
Presenting the new toll, the Director General said Cameroon’s Customs information system, CAMCIS, is the best software in the globe.
The new information system dematerialises clearing procedures for goods and bars the way for corruption. It was initially presented to the press on December 20, 2019 in Douala, by the coordinator of a project to develop a new system, Séraphin Deffo Deffo.
Speaking Friday, the Customs boss, Edwin Fongod, added that the new tool was developed, thanks to a strategic partnership between Cameroon and the Republic of South Korea. Prior to its replacement, Sydonia had served the customs sector for close to two decades. Originally designed to meet statistical needs, Sydonia later ran short of the ability to work automatically as some operations still needed to be done manually.
It also became limited in speed as the workload increased. At the time CAMCIS was presented last December, the coordinator of the project to develop the software said “the uniqueness of this system is the ability to work online without interfering with customs. In this way, Governance issues will be addressed”. There is also the possibility to track operations without having to move and it also offers a platform where all operators can work at the same time, he added.
The Director General of Customs said going for this software was a well thought decision. “The government has decided to officially launch CAMCIS and symbolically, government decided to do it in Yaounde, at one of our data centres. We decided to migrate to CAMCIS, which is something much more modern. We went for the Korean model because for now, it is the best in the world and it brings forth total automation”, Edwin Fongod said.
