Of which, a total of 185 respondents valid and usable responses were collected. The descriptive and inferential statistics were conducted with the help od SPSS 22.0 statistical software. The results of the findings revealed that the four dimensions of customs clearance namely documentation, customs valuation, physical inspection and risk level assessment had positive and significant effect on sales performance of the coffee exporter companies. Specifically, documentation and risk level had the highest effect, while valuation and physical inspection showed less contribution to the model. It can be concluded that the customs clearance activities of the Ethiopian Customs Commission have direct relationship with prediction of sales performance. To improve the quality of the customs clearance, management of the commission are advised to train more staff and adopt modern information technology software to their systems would facilitate the mitigation of the exaggerated customs clearance bureaucratic procedures.
