The Ghana Free Zones Authority (GFZA) licenses businesses in designated export processing zones, granting VAT exemptions and import duty relief on inputs used in export production. Zone status brings material cost advantages — but maintaining them depends on correctly classifying every invoice as a GFZA-exempt export or a domestic supply subject to full 15 % VAT and levies. Errors in either direction trigger GRA compliance queries.
Free-zone sales to the Ghanaian domestic market are incorrectly classified in the invoicing system as zone exports, stripping 15 % VAT plus levies from transactions that should carry the full rate — a position GRA identifies quickly in E-VAT data.

The GFZA annual return requires a comprehensive summary of all exported goods, their HS codes and declared values — assembling this from scattered ERP records takes days and still produces an incomplete picture.
