Clearing agents have challenged $350 (Sh46,075) charged per container of all cargo destined for South Sudan.

They claim that the Mombasa Monitoring Station-National Revenue Authority of South Sudan issued a directive that they should pay the fees to a private company in Uganda— Invesco Uganda Limited— for a tracking system christened Electronic Cargo Tracking Note (ECTN).
