ASYCUDA World Customs Paperless Integration

Guyana's GRA has run UNCTAD's ASYCUDA World for paperless customs since 2018, when electronic manifest filing became mandatory nationwide. In February 2026 it added electronic duty payment through partner banks GBTI and Demerara Bank, letting importers and brokers settle Single Administrative Document assessments without a GRA cashier visit.
