TRADE SINGLE WINDOW: OPPORTUNITIES AND BOTTLENECKS OF ITS IMPLEMENTATION IN BRAZIL

Since Brazil is facing duplicity of information-related problems, reworking, bureaucracy and processes of inefficiency, Single Window is a proposal to modernize import and export operations. The World Customs Organization (WCO) has created Single Window for sending and receiving data with overhaul procedures and regulatory requirements for import and export processes. The main goal is to simplify, reduce bureaucracy and streamline international trade transactions, with gains in competitiveness. The use of Single Window is essential for Brazil inclusion in the global market and in the future. As this measure is being established, it can still generate even new benefits not seen to date in our research and literature review.
