Benin’s Trade Profile: Legal and Institutional Framework

This article provides an overview of Benin’s trade profile, examining both its legal and institutional framework and its main trade partners. It begins by outlining the general context of Benin’s economy and trade policy, as well as the main regional and international integration arrangements in which the country participates. It then examines Benin’s trade relations with Africa, with particular attention to the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU), the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), and the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA). The third section focuses on Benin’s integration into the multilateral trading system and its membership in the World Trade Organization (WTO), particularly its status as a least developed country (LDC), cotton-related issues, and the implementation of the Trade Facilitation Agreement (TFA).
