Overview

Doing a steel project in Central African Republic

Central African Republic is in Middle Africa. The capital is Bangui. Local currency: Central African CFA franc (XAF).

Central African Republic has no coastline: shipments arrive through a seaport in a neighbouring country (Cameroon, Chad, DR Congo, Republic of the Congo, South Sudan, Sudan) and continue by road or rail.

Vietnam has no free trade agreement in force with Central African Republic. Imports follow the general tariff of Central African Republic, which is checked for each project in the landed cost estimate.

Victor Dang, Global Sales Director of World Steel Group, is the direct contact for projects in Central African Republic, from first drawings to fabrication, packing, shipping and documents.
