The South Benacian Community is an international organisation in southern Benacia, aimed at facilitating economic and social development and trade. The countries are sometimes referred to as STUDS.

Members

Institutions

The organisation is governed by the Council of the Community, consisting of the head of government or state of each member nation, or their appointed representative. The only exception is Sanama, since the Federal Council is the collective head of government and state. Sanama is therefore represented by the Federal Councillor for Foreign Affairs or another member of the Federal Council. Decisions in the council are taken unanimously, the South Benacian Community is not a supranational organisation.

Features

Customs union

The member nations have established a customs union for goods. All tariffs and fees between the member nations have been abolished and the same tariffs are applied toward third countries.

Free trade area

The members have established a free trade area for goods, and are working towards harmonising rules and regulations. Spot checks are still allowed on internal borders in order to combat trade and transport of illicit goods. What constitutes illicit goods are still decided by each member nation.

Police cooperation

The members are cooperating to combat international criminal organisations and networks. The first mission under this area of cooperation is the SOBECOPOSEMITE in Tellia.
