TWG formed for eased agri import barriers
The Philippine Star
|June 03, 2024
A technical working group (TWG) has been formed following President Marcos’ April 18 order to remove non-tariff barriers on agricultural imports.
-
Non-tariff barriers are policy measures, other than customs tariffs, that restrict trade, including quotas, import licensing systems, regulations and red tape, Marcos said.
He cited constraints that increase importation costs and limit the supply of farm goods in removing non-tariff barriers.
Agriculture Secretary Francisco Tiu Laurel Jr. has created the TWG in compliance with Administrative Order 20.
The group is tasked with streamlining administrative procedures and policies that would make it easier for importers to secure licenses or exempt licensed importers from submission of registration requirements.
