Trade facilitation

摘要

By end of April 2016, 77 WTO members had ratified the Trade Facilitation Agreement (TFA), which will come into effect once two-thirds of the WTO membership have done so. The Preparatory Committee on Trade Facilitation received over 70 notifications from WTO members indicating how they will implement the Agreement once it enters into force. A website was launched for the Trade Facilitation Agreement Facility, which helps developing and least-developed countries find the support they need to implement the TFA. The Global Alliance for Trade Facilitation was launched at the Tenth Ministerial Conference.
