This work intends to reflect on the process of regional integration in Southern African Development Community (SADC). It discusses the challenges and limits to the deepening of integration in the period from the restructuring of SADC in 2001 to the difficulty of establishing the Customs Union in 2010. During this period, the regional integration process has moved slowly and there was no equal distribution of gains among the SADC member states. The argument hereof sugests as the main obstacles to further integration: the multiple membership of SADC member states to the various regional blocs.
