In a significant move toward modernizing national trade, the Government of St. Vincent and the Grenadines has successfully validated the draft VSWIFT Bill and Regulations. The validation, which took place on July 31, 2026, establishes the legal and operational framework for the Vincy Single Window for Trade (VSWIFT). The Draft VSWIFT Legislative Validation Workshop convened government representatives, trade stakeholders, and technical partners to review the proposed legislation. Developed under the Caribbean Digital Transformation Project (CARDTP), VSWIFT is expected to transform interactions between businesses and government agencies. Winston George, CARDTP Project Coordinator, emphasized that the outputs from this validation session are “critical to the implementation of the VSWIFT”.
