Revision
1. At its meeting on 15 October 1996, the Council for Trade in Goods considered the report of
the Working Group on Notification Obligations and Procedures (G/L/112) and decided, inter alia , that
the listing of notification obligations and the compliance therewith, contained in its Annex III, should
be updated prior to the Singapore Ministerial Meeting and should be maintained on an on-going basisand circulated semi-annually to all Members thereafter.
2. Accordingly Annex III of document G/ L/112 has been repeatedly updated
1. The present
document updates the information, including the explanatory notes, and the listing of notifications to
include all notifications of a regular or periodic nature received up to 31 December 1998.
3. It should be noted that this listing does not address the qualitative aspects of these
notifications, that is, the extent to which the content of the submissions satisfies the informational
requirements of the various obligations.

or corrections to notifications are not counted as additional notifications.

that no notification has been received up to the cut-off date.
(c) "NA" indicates that the requirement was not applicable for this Member during the
period covered by the Note.

4. On 31 December 1998, there were 133 WTO Members.  The list of WTO Members in the
first column, however, comprises 118 names as the European Community and its 15 member
States provide one notification for each of the respective requirements.  In the case of
Agriculture, Switzerland's notifications are taken to cover Liechtenstein as these two
Members have a joint Schedule.
5. The following notes apply to specific agreements:
Agreement on Agriculture

Requirements are shown in three tables referring to the 1995, 1996 and 1997 implementation

symbols used in the table are as follows:
A blank indicates that this is a requirement applicable to the Member concerned but that no
notification was received up to the cut-off date.  Notifications may be submitted according to
various bases (calendar, crop, fiscal years, etc.).  The time limits for the submission of the

document G/TRIMS/1.  Pursuant to decision adopted by the General Council in
April 1995 (WT/L/64) states and separate customs territories eligible to becomeoriginal Members of the WTO that accepted the WTO Agreement after
1 January 1995 had a period of 90 days after the date of their acceptance of the WTO
Agreement to make notifications under Article 5.1 of the TRIMs Agreement.
(b) Article 5.5 requires the notification of the application of trade-related investment
measures notified under Article 5.1 to new investments during the transition period
provided for in Article 5.2.  A standard format for such notifications has been
developed (G/TRIMS/3) but no notifications have been received so far under this
provision.
(c) Article 6.2 requires the notification of publications in which TRIMs may be found.  A
decision has been adopted on the procedure for the implementation of this
