MONROVIA, LIBERIA-The Liberian Government is cautioning rubber exporters to ensure that rubber entering the country from Guinea goes through inspection by the Liberia Revenue Authority Customs Department.

According to the government, failure to abide by the new policy, such rubber will be treated as an export from Liberia and subjected to the requirements of the Executive Order issued last year by President Joseph Boakai.

Executive Order 151 aims to restructure Liberia’s Rubber Sector from raw exports, a move that seeks to create opportunities for domestic manufacturing, job creation, and increased revenue.

In a release issued Wednesday, the Liberia Revenue Authority disclosed that the new measure will remain in force until the Executive Order expires or is extended, when necessary.

Meanwhile, the Liberia Revenue Authority has vowed to publish the names of anyone caught in violation of the government‘s new policy, in line with the amended Revenue Code of the Country.
