Abstract: The notions of Non Tariff Barriers (NTBs) are considered as the most important problem facing trade development in both the developed and Least Developed Countries. This concept needs were addressed and solved, lest it continue to threaten international trade around the world. In this paper, modest and valid efforts were made to objectively assess the chronic problem of NTBs in the Least Developed Countries, Tanzania in particular. The study findings showed the possibility of reducing road blocks in Tanzania from eight to three favouring the landlocked countries, as the roadblocks hampers trade performance.
