REPORT (2002) OF THE COMMITTEE ON IMPORT LICENSING
TO THE COUNCIL FOR TRADE IN GOODS
1. The Agreement on Import Licensing Procedures (the Agreement) which entered  into force on
1 January 1995, establishes disciplines on users of import licensing systems with the principalobjective of ensuring that the procedures applied for granting import licences do not in themselves
restrict trade.  It aims to simplify, clarify and minimize the administrative requirements necessary to
obtain import licences.
2. The Committee on Import Licensing (the Committee) was established to afford Members the
opportunity of consulting on any matters relating to the operation of the Agreement or the furtheranceof its objectives.  The Committee's Rules of Procedure, which were approved by the Council for
Trade in Goods, are contained in document G/L/147.
3. All Members of the WTO are ipso facto  members of the Committee.  Observer governments
in the General Council of the WTO have observer status in the Committee.  In addition,
representatives of the IMF, UNCTAD and the World Bank are invited to attend meetings of theCommittee in an observer capacity.
4. The Committee held two meetings on 14 May and 24 September 2002 (G/LIC/M/15 + Corr.1
and 16).  The Committee at its meeting in May elected Mr. Hiromichi Matsushima of Japan as
Chairman and Miss Philippa Davies of Jamaica as Vice-Chairperson for 2002.
5. Pursuant to Articles 1.4(a) and/or 8.2(b) of the Agreement and procedures agreed by the
Committee, all Members are required to notify their laws, regulations and administrative procedures
relevant to import licensing and submit copies of any relevant publications or laws and regulationsupon becoming a WTO Member.  Any subsequent changes to these laws, regulations and
administrative procedures are also required to be notified.  Since the entry into force of the WTO
Agreement, 83 Members
1 have notified the Committee of their legislation and/or publications under
these provisions.  During the period covered by this report, the Committee received notifications from
the following Members:  Antigua and Barbuda;  China;  Chinese Taipei;  Côte d'Ivoire;  Croatia;Estonia;  European Communities;  Gabon;  Georgia;  Grenada;  Guyana;  Hungary;  India;  Macao,
China;  Moldova;  Namibia;  Slovak Republic;  Turkey;  and Uruguay.  These notifications may be
found in document se ries G/LIC/N/1/-.
6. Article 7.3 of the Agreement requires all Members to provide replies to the Questionnaire on
Import Licensing Procedures
2 by 30 September each year.  Since the entry into force of the WTO
Agreement, 85 Members1 have made notifications under this provision.  This includes replies to the
Questionnaire from 11 Members in 1995,  22 Members in 1996, 25 Members1 in 1997, 26 Members
in 1998, 20 Members1 in 1999, 32 Members1 in 2000, 23 Members1 in 2001 and 35 Members in 2002.
During the period covered by this report, the Committee received notifications from the following

Members:  Albania;  Antigua and Barbuda;  Argentina;  Australia;  Barbados;  Brazil;  Bulgaria;
Burundi;  Canada;  China;  Chinese Taipei;  Côte d'Ivoire;  Croatia;  Cuba;  Cyprus;  Czech Republic;
Ecuador;  Estonia;  European Communities;  Guyana;  Hong Kong, China;  Hungary;  India;  Jamaica;
Japan;  Korea;  Latvia;  Liechtenstein;  Macao, China;  Madagascar;  Malawi;  Maldives;  Malta;
Mauritius;  Moldova;  Namibia;  Philippines;  Slovak Republic;  Slovenia;  South Africa;Switzerland;  Tunisia;  and Venezuela.  These notifications may be found in document series
G/LIC/N/3/-.
7. The Committee also received, pursuant to paragraphs 5.1-5.4 of Article 5, notifications
relating to the institution of new import licensing procedures or changes in these procedures from
Albania, Chinese Taipei, Czech Republic, Hungary, India, Poland, Romania, St. Lucia and Venezuela.
These notifications may be found in document series G/LIC/N/2/-.
8. Written comments, questions and answers concerning the notifications submitted to the
Committee may be found in document series G/LIC/Q/-. 
9. The Committee has provided a regular forum for the discussion of specific notifications
submitted by Members.  As evident in the Annex to this report, there is a lack of compliance with the
mandatory notification requirements under Articles 1.4(a), 8.2(b) and 7.3 and with the ad hoc
notification requirement under Article 5.  This lack of compliance of Members with the transparencyobligations of the Agreement has been the main  preoccupation of the Committee for some time now.
10. At its meetings of 14 May and 24 September, the Chair expressed continuing concern over
the failure of many Members to submit the required  notifications, and informed the Committee of the
steps taken by the Chairperson and the Secretariat with a view to improving the situation.  Theseincluded further reminders to those Members who had never made any notifications of legislation,
never provided replies to the Questionnaire or who had not updated their replies to the Questionnaire
since 1998;  contacting the participants of the Fourth Geneva Week, attended by officials from 24
Member governments which were among those not up-to-date with their notifications;  as well as
reminders to delegations of the pending replies to questions posed by some Members, circulated in theG/LIC/Q/- series, relating to their notifications.  The Committee noted that  notwithstanding a positive
response to the efforts of the Chairperson and the Secretariat, a large number of Members had not yet
complied with the notification obligations, nor had they informed the Secretariat of any difficulties in
notifying, or of any technical assistance needs to improve their compliance.  The Committee also
noted that some Members had notified new import licensing procedures or changes to existing
procedures, under Paragraphs 1-4 of Article 5, without having notified the licensing system itself, nor
having responded to the Questionnaire under Article 7.3.  The Committee further noted that, since theentry into force of the Agreement, no notifications had been received under Article 5.5 which
provided for the submission of reverse notifications where a Member considered that another Member
had not notified the institution of a licensing procedure or changes in the procedures.  As was
suggested by the Committee, further reminders were sent by the Chairperson in August 2002 to
Members who had not submitted notifications, seeking their efforts to comply with these requirements
prior to the September 2002 meeting.  Despite these reminders, as at 11 October 2002, 31 Members
had not submitted any notification since joining the WTO;  only 83 Members
3 had submitted
notifications of laws and regulations (under Articles 1.4(a) and/or 8.2(b));  only a cumulative total of85 Members
3 had submitted replies to the Questionnaire since the entry into force of the WTO
Agreement (under Article 7.3);  and only 25 Members3 had notified new licensing procedures or
changes in existing procedures (under Paragraphs 1-4 of Article 5).
11. During the period covered, the Committee heard concerns expressed by the United States and
requests for information and clarifications concerning import licensing procedures applicable to

certain agricultural products in Costa Rica, the European Communities, Romania, Turkey and
Venezuela, the administration of tariff rate quotas in China, and the absence of or delays in
notifications relating to import licensing regimes applicable in Ecuador, Egypt, Israel, Malaysia,
Mexico and Venezuela.  During this period, Bolivia, Dominica, Ecuador, India, Jordan and Romania
provided responses to the questions posed by th e US (G/LIC/Q/- series and G/LIC/M/15 + Corr.1).
12. At its meeting of 14 May, the Committee agreed that the transitional review of the
implementation of China's commitments in the im port licensing area pursuant to Section 18 of its
Protocol of Accession4 would be conducted at the 24 September 2002 meeting (G/LIC/M/15,
paragraph 3).  Pending the submission of the required notifications by China for this review, the
European Communities transmitted some comments and questions to China concerning its import
licensing procedures, while Japan and the United States requested specific information from China, inwriting, in advance of the Committee's meeting in September 2002 (G/LIC/Q/CHN/1-3).  At its
meeting of 24 September, the Committee conducted the first transitional review pursuant to
Section 18 of the Protocol of Accession (G/L IC/M/16, paragraph 3).  The information and
notifications provided by China to the Committ ee for the meeting were circulated in documents
G/LIC/N/1/CHN/1 and Add.1 and G/LIC/N/3/ CHN/1.  The report of the Committee to the Council for
Trade in Goods on this review is contained in document G/LIC/10.
13. At the meeting on 24 September 2002, the Committee conducted its fourth biennial review of
the implementation and operation of the Agreement under Article 7.1 on the basis of a factual report
prepared by the Secretariat (G/LIC/W/17 and G/LIC/9).
