Non-Tariff Measures in Sri Lanka and Peru: A Business Sector Perspective

In light of the lack of information and transparency on non-tariff measures (NTMs), the International Trade Centre (ITC) a joint agency of the WTO and the UNCTAD, conducted company-level surveys in 30 developing countries to collect data on NTMs and assess their impact on trade. The objective of this workshop was to work in this initiative in Sri Lanka and Peru in order to identify the main obstacles to trade and the most prevalent NTMs faced by business.
