    47775 WORLD BANK Public Disclosure Authorized CHAD TRADE AND TRANSPORT FACILITATION AUDIT 2004 Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized JEAN-FRANCOIS ARVIS WORLD BANK INTERNATIONAL TRADE DEPARTMENT Public Disclosure Authorized 1 This report was written following a mission conducted by Mr. Jean-François ARVIS of the World Bank's International Trade Department from May 17-28. The mission was conducted in conjunction with the main mission on the diagnostic study for an integrated trade framework in Chad, coordinated by Messrs. Salomon Samen and Olivier Cadot. Although this report was written as a stand-alone document, it is also a contribution to the chapter on facilitation in the integrated framework report. The mission chose to take an integrated approach to the issue of trade and transport facilitation. To this end, it used the facilitation audit method developed by the World Bank. This approach takes the point of view of international trade stakeholders (importers, exporters, transport operators, freight forwarders) in identifying and quantifying the costs of and obstacles to efficient trade logistics, and then proposes solutions. The study is based mainly on a series of interviews conducted among private sector participants. With regard to the key issue of Chad-bound transit, the mission conducted field surveys on the two main corridors serving Chad, i.e. through Cameroon (Douala corridor) and through Nigeria (Fotokol-Maiduguri corridor). The costs, procedures, and bottlenecks were examined in detail. The study focused primarily on the Douala corridor, which was traveled using various means of transportation through Garoua, Ngaoundere (railway terminal), Yaoundé and Douala in particular. Mr. Faustin Koyasse, senior economist at the World Bank's resident mission in Yaoundé, actively participated in the preparation and implementation of the Cameroon part of the mission.
