PAJCCI urges commerce ministry to finalize barter trade mechanism with Afghanistan.

PESHAWAR -- Chairman PAJCCI Zubair Motiwala has urged Ministry of Commerce to nominate Pakistan side barter trade mechanism committee on priority basis as further delay will surpass waiver extension of EIF and E-Form resulting in suspension of trading activities and loss of revenue.

In a press statement issued here on Friday, Chairman PAJCCI, Zubair Motiwala said Afghanistan side has already constituted the committee led by co-chairman of PAJCCI, Khan Jan Alokozai under which all relevant provincial chambers are represented.

Last week, a deliberation of this committee was also held under aegis of Ministry of Commerce, Afghanistan.

However, even after passing of one month, the committee from Pakistan side is not announced and expiry of extension is nearing, he added.

He also demanded that requirement of E-Form and EIF shall be waived till barter trade mechanism between two countries is finalized, as the deliberations may take extensive time.
