WTO Announces New Tariff Information System,
by Ulrika Lomas, Tax-News.com, Brussels
Thursday, February 04, 2010
The World Trade Organization (WTO) announced on February 3, 2010, the launch of an
additional service, "Tariff Analysis Online," which will allow users to gain further
information on international customs tariffs.
“Tariff Analysis Online” allows users to access greater detail
on the tariffs that WTO members have legally bound themselves to and the rates they are actually
charging, summary import statistics, and the ability to analyse these interactively.
'Tariff Analysis Online' draws on two WTO databases: the Integrated Database
(IDB) of tariff and import data, and the Consolidated Tariff Schedules, which
contains WTO members’ commitments on tariffs and agricultural subsidies.
The development of the new service is in line with the Market Access Committee’s
decision of July 13, 2009, to make detailed information on tariffs available
to the public.
One of the web's
