The Guyana Revenue Authority’s Automated System for Customs Data (ASYCUDA) is currently experiencing issues but the agency says it is working to have it fixed as soon as possible.
“There is a slowdown in the system and we are working to reset it. We find that even though the internal servers are working properly, there seems to be some problems with the external links,” Commis-sioner General of the Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA), Godfrey Statia, told Stabroek News yesterday when contacted about the issue.
ASYCUDA is an internet-based solution which facilitates paperless transactions. It was implemented in 2017, tailored to local needs and to shorten the time to expedite goods clearance.
But over the past few days, a number of persons have complained of the sloth in using the system and the impact it has had on their business.
Statia has assured that GRA is working to address the issue.
