Abstract
The integration of EAC is premised on the objective of attaining deeper integration of the region for the realisation of balanced growth and development in order to enhance the standards of living of its peoples. The entry point of the integration process is the Customs Union which came into effect in 2005 followed by a Common Market in 2009 and Monetary Union that is slated for 2012. Year 2011 marked the seventh year of the implementation of the EAC Customs Union. A fully fledged stage presupposes attainment of an inter-EAC free trade regime coupled with unhindered movement of goods within the region, a deeper harmonised trade policy, strengthened regional institutional framework and integrated regional wide systems on customs and trade.
