This chapter has twelve articles which are rules based on WTO disciplines. Their objective is to promote freer flow of goods between the two countries by eradicating barriers to trade.

Specifically, the chapter commits both countries to grant preferential tariff-free market access to an extensive range of products. It also provides for possible acceleration of tariff elimination or inclusion of additional products for tariff elimination in the future. In addition, both countries are obliged to ensure that any non-tariff measures, if applied, are transparent and do not distort trade
