Trade in Goods  
     
 

The ESFTA provisions governing trade in goods build on the WTO commitments of EFTA and Singapore. Trade in Goods between EFTA and Singapore are governed by

i.  the Trade in Goods Chapter within the main ESFTA Agreement, which covers HS Chapter 25-97 (i.e. industrial products) and processed agricultural products in HS Chapter 1-24; and
ii.  Bilateral agriculture agreements which cover basic agriculture products in HS Chapter 1-24. These bilateral agreements form part of the instruments establishing the main ESFTA Agreement.
iii. Annexes to (i) and (ii) above set out clearly each country's commitments in the area of tariff concessions. These schedules stipulate the products that would be subject to zero-tariff concessions when the ESFTA enters into force.

The ESFTA also provides for the elimination of all import and export prohibitions or restrictions on trade in goods between EFTA and Singapore. There is explicit abolition of anti-dumping measures on goods originating in the Parties.
