Efficiency of the clearance process, rank (1=highest performer) Logistics Performance Index The Logistics Performance Index reflects perceptions of a countrys logistics performance based on six components. The component "Efficiency of the clearance process" includes results from the survey question "Rate the efficiency of the clearance process (i.e. speed, simplicity and predictability of formalities) by border control agencies in country [x]." Data are from the Logistics Performance Index surveys conducted by the World Bank in partnership with academic and international institutions and private companies and individuals engaged in international logistics. The 2018 round of surveys covered close to 6,000 country assessments by around 1,000 international freight forwarders. Respondents evaluate eight economies on six core dimensions on a scale from 1 (worst) to 5 (best). The economies are chosen based on the most important export and import markets of the respondents country, random selection, and, for landlocked countries, neighboring countries that connect them with international markets. Scores for the six areas are averaged across all respondents and aggregated to a single score using principal components analysis.
