What is BESC?
BESC is a mandatory document for all shipments to Benin, which enables the declaration of goods and receiving permission while the shipment is still at the port of loading. It is required by the Benin Customs Officials for goods discharged at the Port of Cotonou or any other port since 2006. From November 15, 2021, following interministerial order N° 019_/MIT-MEFDC/SCMIC FUISA1022SGG21 from the Council of Ministers, the ECTN management is transferred from the National Shippers’ Council of Benin (CNCB) to the Autonomous Port of Cotonou (PAC).
