GOODS SCHEDULES: CURRENT SITUATION OF SCHEDULES

Current Situation of Schedules of WTO Members(1)

It was agreed at the Market Access Committee meeting of 22 June 1999 that Annex II of document G/MA/63, setting out the situation of schedules of WTO Members, would be updated periodically.(2) In this connection, the attached table is an update of the status of Members’ schedules incorporating information up to 6 May 2011. The introductory text contained in Annex II of the original Document G/MA/63 has been updated to take into account developments since the last revision.

I. Introduction back to top

All WTO Members have a schedule of tariff concessions which is either annexed to the Marrakesh Protocol to the GATT 1994 or to a Protocol of Accession. Some Members have also schedules pre-dating the Uruguay Round which reflect concessions granted previously.(3)

The attached table reflecting the current situation of schedules of WTO Members has been prepared for information purposes in order to assist, inter alia, the project team in the Secretariat updating the CTS files into HS1996(4), HS2002(5), and into HS2007(6). The pending work on the schedules of concessions derives from obligations related to the introduction of the Harmonized System and its subsequent amendments, the results of the Uruguay Round, technical modifications or rectifications to the schedules, as well as renegotiations under Article XXVIII of the GATT 1994. Some background information on these issues has been provided for ease of reference.

The table consists of the following columns:

Column 1: Lists the WTO Members in alphabetical order. It also indicates whether or not the Member is a party to the Harmonized System Convention.

Column 2: Indicates the Roman numeral assigned to the Member’s schedule. Its equivalent Arabic numeral is included in parenthesis for ease of reference.

Column 3: Indicates the situation of the Pre-Uruguay Round schedule, if any.

Column 4: Indicates whether the schedule is annexed to the Marrakesh Protocol or to a Protocol of Accession. The date of accession and references to the relevant documentation is included for the latter.

Column 5: Provides information on the transposition of Uruguay Round schedules into the Harmonized System and its subsequent amendments. In the case of Members having acceded after 1 January 1995, it also indicates the tariff nomenclature used in the schedule annexed to its protocol of accession.

Column 6: Provides information on the rectifications/modifications undertaken by the Member, if any.

Column 7: Provides information on the renegotiations under GATT Article XXVIII initiated by the Member, if any.

II. The Harmonized System and its amendments back to top

A. Introduction of the Harmonized System

Following the entry into force of the Harmonized System(7) (HS) on 1 January 1988 (HS88), the pre-UR schedules of those GATT Contracting Parties that were also contracting parties to the HS Convention were required to be transposed into the HS nomenclature.(8) The GATT Committee on Tariff Concessions developed procedures for this purpose.(9) A number of schedules were transposed, certified and annexed to Protocols.(10) Some Members undertook to renegotiate their schedules in connection with the implementation of the HS. The situation regarding pre-UR schedules is set out in column 3 of the table. The term “None” is used for those Members which did not have a GATT schedule of concessions. It should, however, be noted that these Members did submit a schedule either during the Uruguay Round or at the time of their accession.

The Harmonized System Committee of the World Customs Organization (WCO) undertakes a periodic review of the HS nomenclatureto take account of changes in technology and patterns in international trade, and recommends amendments to it. The first set of such modifications came into force on 1 January 1992 (HS92). A second, more substantial, set of amendments came into force on 1 January 1996 (HS96), a third one on 1 January 2002 (HS2002) and a fourth one on 1 January 2007 (HS2007). It is envisaged that the most recent set of amendments will be introduced on 1 January 2012 (HS2012).(11)

B. First amendment to the HS (HS92)

With a view to keeping the authentic texts of GATT schedules up to date and in conformity with the national customs tariff, the Committee on Tariff Concessions adopted in 1991 simplified procedures to implement the HS92 and any future changes relating to the HS.(12) Eleven GATT Contracting Parties followed these procedures and submitted the required documentation, with only one of them still pending.(13)

C. Second amendment to the HS (HS96)

Members made use of the 1991 procedures for introducing modifications to the schedules resulting from the introduction of HS96. A total of 49 Members submitted the required HS96 documentation, out of which: 29 were full loose-leaf schedules,(14) 19 reflected only the HS96 changes and one included information on a preliminary basis.(15) The General Council adopted, subject to certain conditions, a “collective waiver” suspending the application of Article II of the GATT for 33 Members.(16)This initial waiver was renewed on ten occasions and covered a varying number of Members.(17) The General Council noted at its last renewal that, although it would be the last time that an extension of the HS96 waiver would be granted collectively, Members were not precluded from requesting the suspension of GATT Article II on an individual basis.(18) Since then, the General Council has adopted 48 individual waiver requests from 13 Members.(19)

Noting that 64 developing Members had not followed the 1991 procedures to introduce the modifications resulting from the introduction of HS96, the General Council adopted in 2010 a new set of procedures.(20) This Decision instructed the Secretariat to conduct the technical work for the transposition of the Schedules, using the Consolidated Tariff Schedule database (CTS) as a working tool. The files were subject to multilateral review in dedicated sessions of the Committee on Market Access. The procedures have almost been finalized for the 64 Members concerned, including the circulation pursuant to the 1980 procedures for rectification and modification of 62 schedules, of which 61 have been certified.(21)

D. Third amendment to the HS (HS2002)

The General Council established on 18 July 2001 a set of new procedures for the introduction of HS2002 changes into the schedules of concessions.(22) Although HS2002 had been implemented by most WTO Members, only 35 of them submitted the documentation required by these procedures.(23) With a view to further facilitating and simplifying the introduction of HS2002 changes in the schedules of concessions of all Members, the General Council adopted on 15 February 2005 a set of amendments to the procedures in which the Consolidated Tariff Schedule (CTS) database was to be used as a working tool. The Secretariat was instructed to transpose the schedules of all developing countries.(24) Modifications to 45 schedules have been circulated pursuant to the 1980 procedures for rectification and modification of schedules, of which 41 have been certified.

Although the Secretariat concluded the technical work on most of Schedules, procedures remained outstanding for a high number of files in spite of the absence of comments by other Members and due to the lack of approval or comments by the Member concerned.(25) With a view to redressing this situation, the General Council adopted on 14 December 2010 a new decision amending the procedures.(26) As a result, modifications to 54 schedules have now been circulated pursuant to the 1980 procedures for rectification and modification of schedules.

The General Council has adopted ten “collective waivers” and one individual waiver suspending the application of Article II of the GATT(27) on an annual basis until 31 December 2011. The latest applies to 17 Members (counting the EU-27 as one).(28) The General Council established, in addition, a set of procedures that would need to be followed by any other Member wishing to be covered by the waiver.(29)

E. Fourth amendment to the HS (HS2007)

The General Council adopted on 15 December 2006 procedures for the introduction of HS2007 changes into schedules of concessions.(30) The Secretariat is currently awaiting the instruction of the Committee on Market Access to begin the technical work.(31)

The General Council has also adopted five “collective waivers” suspending the application of Article II of the GATT on an annual basis until 31 December 2011.(32) The waivers also provide that any other Member could be included therein upon request. Five Members have made use of this provision.(33) There are currently 27 Members (counting the EU-27 as one) covered by the fifth HS2007 collective waiver.(34)

F. Status of HS transpositions

The status of HS92 changes and the introduction of the HS are included in Column 3 of the table as it relates to pre-UR schedules. Column 5 reflects the situation of HS96, HS2002 and HS2007 changes. This column also indicates, for those transposition procedures which remain pending, whether or not the Member is currently under a waiver suspending the application of Article II of the GATT.

III. Rectifications/Modifications of schedules back to top

Following the Uruguay Round, a number of WTO Members submitted rectifications and modifications to their UR schedules. The procedures for the rectifications/modifications of schedules were adopted by the GATT Contracting Parties on 26 March 1980.(35) Modifications made pursuant to these procedures have included, inter alia: (i) modifications of a technical nature that not affect the scope of the concessions; (ii) concessions made in the context of the Ministerial Declaration on Trade in Information Technology Products (ITA)(36); (iii) revisions and additions to the product coverage of the Pharmaceutical Understanding (Pharma)(37); (iv) bilateral sectorial negotiations (e.g. distilled spirits); (v) modifications pursuant to Annex 5 of the Agreement on Agriculture; and (vi) autonomous improvements in concessions.

Column 6 reflects the situation concerning the rectifications and modifications of schedules. Those pertaining to the ITA, the Pharma, Other Duties and Charges (ODCs), Annex 5 of the Agreement on Agriculture, and the results of bilateral negotiations on distilled spirits have been expressly identified. All others have been labelled as “other”. Approximately 167 proposals for modifications/rectifications of schedules have been put forward for the consideration of Members since the establishment of the WTO(38), 23 of which have been formally concluded by means of a Procès-Verbal of rectification and 130 through a certification. There are approximately 14 procedures which have not been concluded for various reasons (reservations, domestic approval procedures, etc.) or have not been pursued further by the Member concerned.(39)

IV. Renegotiations under GATT Article XXVIII back to top

Members are allowed to modify or withdraw concessions from their schedule through negotiation and agreement with other Members. Article XXVIII of the GATT 1994 entitled “Modification of Schedules” is the main provision dealing with the renegotiation of a tariff concession.(40)

A 1957 note by the GATT Secretariat, concerning arrangements for negotiations under Article XXVIII of the GATT 1994, set out the procedural guidelines that were used until November 1980 when the current guidelines for procedures were adopted.(41) Although the early practice makes it difficult to determine the exact number of renegotiations that took place under the GATT 1947, the Secretariat's records show that at least 42 GATT Contracting Parties initiated roughly 300 renegotiations between 1951 and 1994.(42)

The 1980 procedures provide for a Member undertaking GATT Article XXVIII negotiations to submit to the Secretariat: (i) a report and a joint letter upon completion of each bilateral negotiation and (ii) a final report upon completion of all its bilateral negotiations. In practice, however, only 19 final reports were received by the Secretariat for the 79 renegotiations initiated between 1981 and 1994.(43) The status recorded by the Secretariat for renegotiations lacking a final report is diverse. While in a few cases the Contracting Parties withdrew the invocation of Article XXVIII, in others they only submitted partial information regarding the bilateral agreements reached. No further information has been received by the Secretariat after the initiation of these renegotiations and only a few of them were formally carried-over into the WTO.

It remains unclear for the majority of these Pre-UR renegotiations whether they were: (i) concluded with the relevant Contracting Parties and their results incorporated into the Schedule annexed to the Marrakesh Protocol to the GATT 1994 (MP) during the Uruguay Round, (ii) concluded, but its results overridden by the Schedule annexed to the MP, (iii) concluded with all the relevant Contracting Parties, but never reported or included in a schedule, or (iv) are still on-going.

There have been 35 requests to enter into renegotiations under GATT Article XXVIII since the establishment of the WTO in 1995, 4 of which have been withdrawn, 11 have been concluded and formally certified, and 5 have been concluded but have not been certified for various reasons. Although the remaining 15 are in principle still on-going, it should be noted that two of them relate to schedules which were withdrawn in the context of an enlargement of the European Union (i.e. Hungary and Bulgaria).(44)

Column 7 reflects the status recorded by the Secretariat for all renegotiations invoked from 1 January 1981 when the current procedures started being implemented. The table also includes renegotiations related to GATT Article XXIV:6. The term “unclear” has been used to identify those GATT renegotiations initiated between 1981 and 1994 in which there is no final report or any other formal document indicating the conclusion of such negotiations. It should finally be noted that 19 Article XXVIII renegotiations invoked before the end of the UR by the EEC-9 and some of the EC-15 member states are not reflected therein.(45)

V. Current situation of schedules back to top

These part needs to be in line with the proposal to be made to the Committee

The situation of the Schedules of concessions has improved considerably over the last years thanks to a number of specific Decisions adopted by Members, in particular with regard to the HS amendments. However, Members still are at very different stages with respect to their schedules. Some Members currently applying the HS, and even HS2007, still have pre-UR concessions which are scheduled in a different nomenclature. In these cases, and although the technical work undertaken in the context of HS1996 and HS2002 has minimized considerably the problem, Members need to still transpose the relevant concessions into the HS. In spite of the considerable progress made, the HS transposition work is still lagging behind with respect to nomenclature used in practice by Members, a problem that may be exacerbated by the upcoming implementation of the fifth amendment to the HS on 1 January 2012. Finally, it would also be advisable for Members to clarify the status of the renegotiations under Article XXVIII of the GATT that remain outstanding or that lack a final report, and in particular for those Pre-UR cases labelled as “unclear”.

7   The Harmonized System (HS) nomenclature, which was developed in the World Customs Organization (formerly the Customs Cooperation Council), entered into force on 1 January 1988 through a Convention. As of March 2011, there are 91 WTO Members (counting the EC-27 as one), which are contracting parties to the HS Convention. Practically all the remaining 35 WTO Members apply the HS in spite of not being contracting parties to it.  back to text
8   Article 3 of the HS Convention obliges HS contracting parties to ensure that their customs tariff and statistical nomenclatures are in conformity with the Harmonized System. It is to be noted that those GATT Contracting Parties that were not contracting parties to the HS, but nevertheless applied the HS in their national customs tariff, also undertook this exercise in order to keep the authentic texts of their schedules up to date and in conformity with their national customs tariff.  back to text

41   In compliance with instructions given by the Contracting Parties (L/641, GATT BISD 6S/158) the Executive Secretary issued a note concerning the arrangements for negotiations under GATT Article XXVIII on 31 May 1957 (GATT doc. L/635). A revised version of the procedural guidelines were prepared in 1978 (GATT doc. L/4651) which served as the basis for the technical discussions at the Committee on Tariff Concessions, which were finally adopted as guidelines on 10 November 1980. See GATT doc. C/113 and Corr.1, GATT BISD 27S/26.  back to text
42   Due to their provisional nature, tariff commitments made in the 1947 Geneva negotiations had an initial validity of three years. Consequently, the original drafting of GATT Article XXVIII contained no provision for the modification or withdrawal of these commitments before 1 January 1951. Contracting Parties initially extended the validity of these Schedules through “Declarations on the Continued Application of Schedules”. During the Torquay Tariff Conference of 1950 the negotiations for new concessions took place in parallel with some renegotiations. The Review Session of the GATT that took place subsequently disposed of the need to extend the validity of the Schedules periodically. It also proposed amendments to several Articles of the GATT (including Article XXVIII) and proposed the incorporation of a new Article XXVIII bis entitled “Tariff negotiations”. These amendments were formally adopted through the Protocol Amending the Preamble and Parts II and III of the General Agreement of 10 March 1955, which entered into force on 7 October 1957.  back to text
43   See footnote 40. The status of GATT Article XXVIII negotiations up to June 1980 can be consulted in GATT doc. TAR/W/7 of 18 June 1980.  back to text
44   The number of renegotiations is calculated based on all documents circulated under the G/SECRET document symbols, plus document Secret/347, and renegotiations of schedules in connection with the HS transposition from Sri Lanka (G/SECRET/HS/11) and the Dominican Republic (G/L/4 and G/C/M/3).  back to text
