  1  NOTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS  
1.1.  There is a total of 12 distinct notification requirements applicable in the domain of agriculture 
covering the following five areas: (i) Market access (Tables MA:1 to MA:5), (ii) Domestic support 
(Tables DS:1 to DS:2), (iii) Export subsidies (Tables ES:1 to ES:3), (iv) Export prohibitions or 
restrictions (Table ER:1), and (v) Follow -up to the Marrakesh NFIDC Decision (Table  NF:1). 
The applicability of a notification requirement to a Member is largely dependent on the specific 
commitments it has assumed under the Agreement on Agriculture. In many cases a limited number 
of notification requirements will apply for a particular Member. Simultaneously, there are a few 
notification requirements especially in  the area of agricultural subsidization (i.e. Tables  DS:1 
and ES:1) that apply to all WTO Members.  
1.2.  Out of the 12 notification requirements, there are five "regular" or "annual" notification 
requirements, namely: Table MA:2, Table MA:5, Table DS:1, Table ES :1 and Table ES:2. Annual 
notifications are required to be submitted no later than a certain number of days following the end 
of the year in question. Regular notifications are required to be submitted  by the concerned Members 
irrespective  of whether they maintained any notifiable measure in a given year ; in the absence of 
such measures  a 'nil' notification  should be submitted . The deadlines for submission of notifications 
vary per type of notification and are indicated below. For additional details refer t o document 
G/AG/2.  
1.3.  As of 2 September  2022, a total of 5,770 agriculture notifications (including addenda, 
corrigenda and revision s) have been submitted to the WTO. The number of notifications submitted 
to the W TO experienced a generally upward trend in rec ent years  reaching a peak in 2019 with a 
total of 440  notifications, the highest number of submitted notifications since the CoA's inception 
(Figure  1). 
Figure 1: Notifications submitted to the WTO (1995 -2022*) 
 
* Up to 2 September  2022. 
1.4.  For the period 1995 -2020, there are a total of 2,080 outstanding regular notifications which 
represents around 2 5% of expected notifications.4 Out of the five annual notification requirements, 
Domestic Support (Table DS:1) and Export Subsidy (Table ES:1) notifica tions have the highest 
number of outstanding notifications with 3 4% (948 notifications) and 3 1% (958 notifications) of 
notifications pending, respectively.  
  
 
4 "Ad hoc " notification obligations applicable only upon maintenance of a specific measure 
(e.g. Table  ER:1 required upon the application of export restrictions) as well as the annual notifications where 
it was not possible to determine a priori  whether the concerned notification requirement would be applicable 
(e.g. Table NF:1 applicable to donor Members o nly) are excluded.

  1.1  Annual Notification Obligations  
1.6.  The time limits for notifications covering the 1995 -2020 implementation years have now 
passed. The seven tables contained in part 2 of this document ( under 'C ompliance with Annual 
Notification Obligations ') show Members' compliance with their notification requirements. The 
individual tables show only those Memb ers to whom the notification requirement applies. The last 
column on each table shows the percentage of compliance by Member for the corresponding 
notification requirement. The tables contain information pertaining to the last 18 years (200 4-2021). 
The col umn concerning the 20 21 implementation year is provided for information only and does not 
necessarily indicate that the notifications are now due. The notification obligation s of the United 
Kingdom ha ve been reflected  in the relevant tables  for the period after the end of the transition 
period on 31 December 2020 ; the notifications circulated by the United Kingdom have also been 
acknowledged.5 The full -time series (1995 -2021) of compliance information is available in the 
"Compliance with notification oblig ations" section of the Agriculture Information Management 
System ( http://agims.wto.org ). 
1.7.  Members' compliance with their notification obligations varies greatly . The  compliance also 
varies by type of notification. Only a  few Members are 100% compliant (26 Members in DS:1 and 
36 Members in ES:1)  with all their notification requirements . Simultaneously,  there is an important 
percentage of Members whose compliance with some of their notification obligations is  0% 
(28 Members in DS:1 and 2 0 Members in ES:1) (Table 1).

  1.4  Symbols and Abbreviations  
A blank space (" ") indicates that the notification is outstanding.  
 
A capital "x" (" X") indicates that a notification has been issued. No assessment on the content or 
quality of the notification with respect to requirements is made or implied.  
 
A capital "x" followed by a superscripted star (" X*") indicates that the one -off Table  MA:1 
notification has been revised or supplemented.  
 
A capital "p" (" P") indicates that a notification has been received and is either being processed or 
pending for want of feedback from the notifying Member. A pending notification will be marked as 
"P" for a maximum period of six months.  
 
A capital "n" and a capital "a" (" NA") indicates that the requirement was not applicable during the  
period covered either because there were no relevant commitments (e.g. tariff quotas) or because 
the Member concerned was not yet a WTO Member.  
 
A capital "n" and a capital "a" in brackets (" (NA) ") indicates that domestic support notifications 
are require d every second year from LDC Members.  
 
Shaded  cells indicate that the Member concerned has a scheduled domestic support and/or an 
export subsidy reduction commitment.  
 
The European Union refers to  EU-15 from 1995, EU -25 from 2004, EU -27 from 2007 , EU-28 
from 2013  and EU -27 from 2021 following the departure of the United Kingdom . The United 
Kingdom  ceased to be a member State of the European Union on 1  February 2020; the annual

- 11 - 2  COMPLIANCE WITH ANNUAL NOTIFICATION OBLIGATIONS  
2.1.  "Compliance (%) ", shown in the last column of tables 2.1 to 2.5 below, is calculated based on the number of reported years covered by each Member's 
notifications, issued as of 2 September  2022, compared to the total number of implementation years applicable  to that Member  for the period 1995 -2020. 
A 100%  compliance for a notification obligation signifies  the circulation of all relevant notifications due for the period 1995 -2020 before the cut -off date of 
2 September 2022; it does not take into account the actual date of su bmission/circulation of the notifications. The compliance percentage does not therefore take 
into account the "timeliness " aspect of the notifications.  The 'compliance ' in this document  also does not take into consideration the quality or content of 
the notifications  submitted . In view of the different types of implementation years (calendar, marketing, financial , etc.) used in Members' annual notifications, 
the year '202 1' has not been used in the calculation  of compliance as notifications for 202 1 may n ot necessarily be due in all cases. Members' notifications for 
2021, circulated as of 2 September 2022, have been acknowledged in the tables. Detailed information on compliance (for 1995 -2021) may also be consulted 
under the "Compliance with notification o bligations" section of the Agriculture Information Management System ( http://agims.wto.org/ ).
