Kenya, Uganda Discuss Resolving Outstanding Trade Barriers

Kenya, Uganda to address outstanding trade barriers

Kenya, Uganda to address outstanding trade barriers

KBC Digital

What changed

Kenya and Uganda are taking up outstanding issues that have been limiting trade between the two countries. Trade officials met in Kampala, with Kenya’s delegation led by Trade Principal Secretary Regina Ombam, to discuss addressing those barriers.

Why it matters

For businesses trading across the Kenya-Uganda border, the meeting signals an attempt to clear obstacles that have been left unresolved. But this is still a starting point: the specific barriers, proposed remedies, deadlines and implementation commitments have not been provided.

The practical test will be whether the Kampala discussion produces named actions. Until then, the promise is political rather than operational.
