The Government of Belize, through the Central Bank of Belize, is developing a fully digitized instant payments system to modernize the current environment where payments are accepted primarily through bank deposits. The new system will provide faster payments and expanded options, including QR code payments, alias identifiers, and request-to-pay functions. Government collections will also be integrated into this platform, consistent with the Belize’s planned modernization of its systems. The project officially commenced in April 2026 following the contracting of the implementing firm, with a planned go-live in Q1 2028. Given the scale of development, testing, and integration across government agencies, Belize requests an extension until 30 June 2028 to ensure the electronic payments system is fully operational and aligned with the rollout of the Electronic Single Window for Trade.

Currently the Belize Customs and Excise Department utilizes an electronic payment system through the AYSCUDA World System purchased from UNCTAD with donor support from CDB. However, the Supplies Control Unit and other Border Agencies do not have in place such system. Belize would appreciate any assistance that would allow the accommodation of electronic payment through the ASYCUDA World system or another system for these agencies.
