In recent period, the commercial sector of Ethiopia is growing and developing; this is partly attributed to the strategic Policy of Ethiopia which encourages its development. However, business owners come across hinderances to navigate the business environment. To alleviate this issue, one of the strategic moves was to replace the obsolete commercial code of Ethiopia after sixty years with new Commercial Code of Ethiopia, Proclamation No. 1243/2020. This code is updated to fit the current need of business sector, to simplify way businesses establish and regulate various business areas that were never been given any attention.

Upon completion of this seminar, you will:

  • Gain an understanding of the what business regulatory system addresses; Compliance/license to trade, Labor law, Contract law, Mortgage loan, VAT/TOT, Income Tax & dividend 
  • Find out what the new changes mean to the business or sector you are involved in
  • Explore changes you can consider to best utilize the changes that came with the new proclamation
