Over 80 participants gathered at the ICC Middle East and North Africa (MENA) regional office in Doha on Tuesday to discuss the numerous opportunities and challenges that the World Trade Organization (WTO) Trade Facilitation Agreement (TFA) presents to businesses and governments in region.
The International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) continued its intense campaign to urge WTO member countries to begin the implementation process of the trade facilitation measures agreed to in Bali in 2013, despite recent hold ups of agreement ratification.
The ICC MENA regional office brought together policymakers and stakeholders in the seminar, under the patronage of H.E., Minister of Economy and Commerce of Qatar, to stress the need for MENA region countries to adhere – to the greatest extent possible – to maximum obligations under the TFA and contribute to reducing cross-border trade barriers.
