  Hemispheric Trade and Tariff Database

HTML version

The Trade Ministers at their meeting in Toronto, agreed to disseminate and periodically update information on tariffs and trade flows prepared in the context of the Negotiating Group on Market Access. The Data Base has recently been updated to version 2.0, which includes new data as well as the ability to accommodate trade data submitted in Harmonized System 2002. The information in the Hemispheric Trade and Tariff Data Base for Market Access consists of:

National Customs Tariff based on the Harmonized System (HS) at the most detailed tariff line level with corresponding product description. For each tariff line, the following information is available, as applicable:
  MFN Applied Tariff Rates;
Preferential Tariff Rates and the countries to which they apply;
Tariff lines for which Agricultural Tariff Rate Quotas (TRQs) may apply; and
Agricultural exports for which Export Subsidies may apply.
 
Import and Export Statistics by partner country, in value and volume, at the most detailed level of the National Custom Tariff.

 

The data in the Hemispheric Trade and Tariff Data Base for Market Access are compiled by the Inter-American Development Bank (as a part of the Tripartite Committee) from the official submissions by countries participating in the FTAA initiative. The Data Base will be updated on an annual basis with tariffs available in the second quarter and trade flows in the fourth quarter of each year.
