Business environment in Afghanistan

Following the Taliban’s takeover in 2021, Afghanistan’s economic landscape has become increasingly precarious. Economic growth has stagnated, with limited trade confined to neighboring regions. The government of Canada, among other nations does not recognize the Taliban government and maintains sanctions targeted at the group. Caution is warranted, considering potential legal and ethical implications. EDC currently maintains a closed position regarding operations in Afghanistan.
