During initial level, BEZA will offer five services – project clearance, visa recommendation, work permit recommendation, import permit and export permit – out of a total 28 approvals required for investment purposes, which will be introduced within one month. The other services required for investors will be included in the automated web platform in phases, says BEZA in a press release issued yesterday.
