The so-called technical trade barrier is refers to a country to maintain the national basic security, to safeguard the human health and the security, the protection ecological environment, the guarantee product quality, prevented the fraudulent practice and so on the legitimate goal is a reason, but adopts technical laws and regulations, standard, qualified evaluation procedure and so on all sorts of compulsory or non-compulsory technical limit measure.It is in a trade non-customs duty measure very important constituent, is having the more and more tremendous influence now to the international trade.How knew correctly that, adopts the effective response strategy, after is our country is WTO entry speeds up the foreign trade development an important topic. About the technical trade barrier question several knew (1) must correctly regard the reason which the technical trade barrier emerges to have one view now, thought the technical trade barrier starting, mainly is because some developed countries borrow its legitimate name, reality of the line of protected trade.This view somewhat specious.Actually, the technical trade barrier emerges has the profound society and the historical perspective.First, we saw, the postwar these for several dozens years, the world economics and the international trade had the swift and violent development, but as a result of the people to the ecology and the environment question understanding insufficiency, caused various countries' the ecology and the environment has all received the degree different destruction during the production and trade development, the economical trade and the ecological environment and the sustainable development contradiction was day by day prominent.Therefore, the various countries take the technical measure in abundance, afforests the production and the trade in order to.Second, along with the modern science and technology development, the trade product and the service technical content is more and more high.At the same time, along with the people living standard and the quality of life enhancement, the various countries' consumer to the product and the service selective enhancement, to the product and the service security, wholesomeness and the performance quality request more and more is also high.This request various countries take the practical effective technical measure, safeguards the normal production, the trade and the expense.Third, is the technical measure system formation has a process.It from the people in the production activity for guaranteed the product quality formulation technical standard establishes the product quality authentication system, expands gradually to the product and the service safe authentication, the environment and the management system authentication, some evolution developing process.It is not which country “does the racket pat the head” to be able to form.Fourth, along with the modern trade development, in GATT and under the WTO function, various member nations average customs duty large drop, this causes including the technical trade barrier some non-customs duty measure question to appear gradually comes out.Certainly, here we do not remove some national use technical measure, reality of line of protected trade question.Also because of like this, the WTO various members is realizing, it is necessary to formulate unified international rules to come the standard technical measure, eliminates nonessential barrier which creates for the international trade. |
