In the past two decades, however, these trends have been reversed, and Madagascar has been emerging as a stable democracy with a growing economy. A key part of Madagascar's economic success has been its willingness to open up its economy to foreign trade and investment. One way that the country has encouraged foreign trade is by issuing an Electronic Consignment Note (ECTN) for all shipments of goods bound for Madagascar.
An ECTN is an electronic document that serves as a certificate of origin and a shipping manifest for goods being exported. The ECTN is issued by the Madagascar Chamber of Commerce and is required for all exports from Madagascar. The ECTN process is relatively simple and straightforward. First, the exporter must obtain a certificate of origin from the Chamber of Commerce.
