Economic attractiveness requires absolute legal certainty and a swift justice system. In Lomé, political action led by Council President Faure Gnassingbé is fulfilling this requirement with remarkable strategic clarity. The extraordinary session of the National Assembly marks a decisive step for the future of investment. The 2018 overhaul of the Commercial Courts Act provides the country with a modern, flexible, and responsive framework to address the challenges of contemporary commerce.
This far-reaching transformation equips the commercial courts in Lomé and Kara with powerful digital tools. The complete digitization of procedures, virtual hearings, and the reliable archiving of judgments are transforming the way cases are handled. Small-claims disputes are resolved quickly thanks to higher thresholds, while a specialized chamber provides support to businesses in financial difficulty.
Through this full harmonization with the new OHADA Uniform Act, Togolese legislation enhances predictability and strengthens certainty for economic operators.
This reform demonstrates the approach taken by the country’s leadership, backed by concrete institutional action. The Togolese government is proving its ability to plan ahead and is sending a strong message to international markets. Each provision reinforces the image of a stable, attractive, and reliable Togo.
This judicial momentum supports the goal of establishing the Togolese capital as a major economic and logistics hub in West Africa. The executive branch’s bold reform efforts ensure an exemplary business environment for national development.
