Ajman Chamber issues 19,008 certificates of origin worth over Dhs4.3bn

Ajman Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ACCI) has issued 19,008 certificates of origin worth more than Dhs4.3bn in H1, 2022, compared to 16,768 certificates with a value of Dhs4.1bn issued during the same period last year, reflecting a growth rate of 13 per cent.

According to the state news agency, WAM, Abdullah Al Muwaiji, the chairman of the ACCI, stated that Ajman possesses many supporting potentials that contribute directly to the growth of export and re-export, including advanced infrastructure and road network, the flexibility of licences, and availability of logistics services, in addition to the ease and speed of handling at the port of Ajman.

Al Muwaiji has said that Libya topped the list of prominent export and re-export countries, followed by Saudi Arabia, and then Egypt. The most exported products from Ajman included oil derivatives, mineral fuels and seafood.

Ajman Chamber is looking to diversify service channels and provide fast and flexible services, he said, adding that the request for a certificate of origin can be made through the ACCI’s website or by visiting the service centre in its headquarters.

ACCI has issued a set of commercial reports to its members, traders, and industrial business owners, to identify export opportunities available in global markets, which contribute to increasing local production and the growth of exports.

This supports the ’10×10′ Programme – the economic initiative for boosting the country’s exports, targeting ten global markets and an annual increase of ten per cent in exports to these markets.

In recent news, Ajman’s Department of Finance has partnered with cloud applications and infrastructure provider Oracle to adopt a cloud-based resource management system. The cloud-based system will enables more efficient finance, supply chain and HR functions across the organisation.
