This note is part of a new global effort by all United Nations Regional Commissions (UNRCs), in cooperation with other international organizations, to provide reliable and sufficiently detailed data on the implementation of trade facilitation in general - and single window and paperless trade in particular at the global level. It features the results of the 2017 UN Global Survey on Trade Facilitation and Paperless Trade implementation for the North and Central Asian (NCA) sub-region, covering Armenia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russian Federation, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. This note is a complement to the more elaborate Global and Regional (Asia-Pacific) Reports. It should best be read in conjunction with them, as well as the associated Country Notes.
