FAISALABAD:
A special cell will be created in the Faisalabad Chamber of Commerce and Industry (FCCI) to familiarise exporters with recently introduced Registered Exporter System in order to facilitate exports to European Union under the GSP Plus scheme, said FCCI President Muhammad Saeed Sheikh.

Speaking at an awareness seminar at the FCCI, he explained the GSP Plus status given to Pakistan in 2014, saying its basic objectives were to offset the impact of damages caused to Pakistan's economy due to the war on terror.


Appreciating the Registered Exporter System, Sheikh said it would further facilitate Pakistan's exporters by making their shipments to EU countries free of hassle and unnecessary procedural bottlenecks. He said it was actually a self-certification system and many European countries were already following it to streamline imports from Pakistan under GSP Plus.
