What is a BESC Certificate?
All shipments to Benin must have the BESC, which allows for the declaration of goods and authorization while the shipment is still at the port of loading. Since 2006, Benin Customs officials have mandated it for goods discharged at the Port of Cotonou or any other port.

Following the interministerial order N° 019_/MIT-MEFDC/SCMIC FUISA1022SGG21 issued by the Council of Ministers, the Autonomous Port of Cotonou (PAC) will take over control of the ECTN from the National Shippers' Council of Benin (CNCB) as of November 15, 2021.

Required Documents:
▶︎ Bill of Lading – A draft copy can be used for the draft.
▶︎ Commercial Invoice
▶︎ Freight Invoice – It is necessary if the freight cost isn’t on the commercial invoice.
▶︎ Export Customs Declaration – Details have to be the same across all documents if it is not cross-trade
▶︎ Packing List – Details have to be the same as the Commercial Invoice
