Outsourcing means not taking away the jobs from the people. It about work of one company is done in other company in different countries. If firm decides to outsource HR department, it means sending few employees to other countries for same work. This can be a question in many minds. Outsourcing is one aspect of trade and makes the economy stronger. Outsourcing HR makes the industry more competitive and can create more jobs.
Now a days, every company is outsourcing its activities despite of good in-house staff. Due to some problems faced by economy, some companies are busy in making a decision whether to continue HR department or eliminate it.

With HR outsourcing, company can get more efficiently done HR task at lower cost and ability to spend money and time on other departments like sales, marketing, etc., are also increased.

Manufacturers looking to export their products abroad need to consider various factors when evaluating export markets. One of those factors is the customs clearance infrastructure and processes within a given country. This article presents an overview of the time and cost it takes for a local partner to clear imported products through customs in Egypt. This overview, along with a regional comparison, should help you better qualify Egypt as an export market for your products.
Egypt is located within the Middle East & North Africa region. It has a population of roughly 99 million people as of 2018. 38% of the population lives in urban areas. The World Bank categorizes it as a lower middle income country with a GDP per capita (PPP) of USD$13000 per person.
The "World Bank's Doing Business project" publishes an evaluation of countries based on their efficiency of cross border trade. When assessing import efficiency within a country it primarily reviews four factors:
1. The time for border compliance (imports): Compliance time associated with the country's customs regulations, inspections and handling that takes place at its port or border. Assumes a US$50,000 imported shipment of auto parts weighing 15 tons for calculation purposes.
2. The cost of border compliance (imports): Compliance cost associated with the country's customs regulations, inspections and handling that takes place at its port or border. Assumes a US$50,000 imported shipment of auto parts weighing 15 tons for calculation purposes.
3. The time for document compliance (imports): The time for obtaining documents, preparing documents, processing documents, presenting documents and submitting documents. Assumes a US$50,000 imported shipment of auto parts weighing 15 tons for calculation purposes.
4. The cost of document compliance (imports): The cost for obtaining documents, preparing documents, processing documents, presenting documents and submitting documents. Assumes a US$50,000 imported shipment of auto parts weighing 15 tons for calculation purposes.
When evaluating border compliance time and cost amongst major regional economies, Egypt ranks 12th regionally in terms of border compliance time and 8th regionally in terms of border compliance cost. A US$50,000 imported shipment of auto parts would take 240 hours to clear border customs and cost roughly US$554.
When evaluating document compliance time and cost amongst major regional economies, Egypt ranks 13th regionally in terms of document compliance time and 13th regionally in terms of document compliance cost. A US$50,000 imported shipment of auto parts would take 265 hours in Egypt to have documents prepared & cleared and would cost roughly US$1000.
Border compliance time and cost are calculated as a function of three driving factors: the time/cost related to working with customs authorities, the time/cost related to working with other agencies and finally border handling time/cost. The border compliance time and cost for Egypt are primarily driven by border handling but working with custom and other authorities also add significant time/cost.
Document compliance time and cost is a function of the various documents required by the country when importing goods. For Cairo, the documents required when importing goods from abroad include Certificate of origin, Customs Import declaration, Commercial invoice, Delivery order, Cargo release order, Packing list, Bill of lading, Compliance certificate, Form 4, Receipt of administrative Fees and SOLAS certificate.
Another factor that influences import trade efficiency is transportation costs. For shipments bound to Cairo, the port where goods would most likely land would be Alexandria port. When calculating transportation cost for the US$50,000 auto parts shipment, the World Bank calculates that the shipment that would land at Alexandria port would need to be transported 224 km with an average travel time of 8 hours. This brings the delivery transportation cost for the shipment to roughly US$300.
Greater use of technology within the customs clearance process helps improve efficiency and lower time and cost associated with customs clearance. Today many countries use digital systems to streamline the customs clearance process. Many of these customs systems are known as EDI or Electronic Data Interchange systems. More recently however, there has been a push to develop even more integrated customs clearance systems known as SW or single window systems. These systems provide greater integration within a given country and between multiple countries when managing customs clearance.
