2001 was the year Burkina Faso decided to implement the regulation that made ECTN mandatory for all shipments except air cargo. And since Burkina Faso is a landlocked country, all sea transports must be made from neighboring countries with a coastline. For instance, Ghana, Togo, Benin, Ivory Coast, etc. If you are exporting to Burkina Faso, you must obtain an ECTN certificate for the country you use the port of too*.
