Specific objectives of the study included: to establish the effect of cooperation among border agencies, coordination between border agencies, border collaboration challenges between border agencies, coexistence among border agencies, and the effect of communication among border agencies on trade facilitation at the Namanga border point. New Trade Theory and Export Base Theory were used in the study. The study adopted causal research design and a target population of 94 staff of border control agencies at Namanga Border Point. Census was used to include all of them in the study where primary data was collected using a structured questionnaire and analyzed using descriptive (frequencies & percentages) and inferential (multiple linear regression) data analysis methods. The study’s key findings indicated that there were significant challenges on coordinated border management at the Namanga border point. The study recommended the government’s creation of a harmonized business environment, effective coordination mechanism, effective policy for enhanced interagency collaboration, appropriate border control agencies coexistence structures, and working communication mechanism for helping border control agencies to always work under a more professional and friendlier environment that is favourable to effective and efficient trade facilitation at the Namanga border point.
