Committee on Market Access    
 
SITUATION OF SCHEDUL ES OF WTO MEMBERS  
NOTE BY THE SECRETAR IAT1 
Revision  
It was agreed at the Market Access Committee meeting of 22  June 1999 that Annex II of document 
G/MA/63, setting out the situation of schedules of WTO Members, would be updated periodically.2 
In this connection, please find attached an update of the status of Members' schedules incorporating 
information up to 12 May 2020. The intro ductory text contained in Annex  II of the original document 
G/MA/63 has been updated to take  into account developments since the last revision.  
_______________  
 
1  INTRODUCTION  
1.1.  Each WTO Member has a Schedule of concessions3, sometimes referred to as a "Goods 
Schedule", which is either annexed to the Marrakesh Protocol to the GATT 1994 or to a Protoc ol of 
Accession4.  The Uruguay Round Schedules of some Members incorporate by reference concessions 
pre-dating the Uruguay Round or indicated that the new concessions are "without prejudice" to their 
GATT Schedule and, as a result, many of these concession s remain valid under the WTO .5  Although 
it is frequent to refer to "the" Schedule of a Member, tariff and other concessions can be contained 
in several legal instruments that, together, set out that Member's obligations.  
1.2.  The attached table reflecting the current situation of schedules of WTO Members has been 
prepared for information purposes in order to assist, inter alia , the project team in the Secretariat 
updating the CTS files into HS19966, HS20027, HS20078, HS20129 and HS201710.  The pending work 
 
1 This document has been prepared under the Secretariat's own responsibility and is without prejudice 
to the positions of Members or to their rights and obligations under the WTO . 
2 See G/MA/M/19, paragraph 4.1.  
3 Paragraph 1 of the Marrakesh Protocol to the GATT 1994 provides: "The schedule annexed to this 
Protocol relating to a Member shall become a Schedule to GATT 1994 relating to that Member on the day on 
which the WTO Agreement enters into force for that Memb er." This usage followed the convention in earlier 
GATT 1947 tariff protocols under which a "schedule" of proposed concessions became a legally -binding 
"Schedule" upon its entry into force.  See also Article XI of the WTO Agreement.  
4 Certain commitments a re not reflected in the Schedules. For example, s upporting Tables relating to 
commitments on agricultural products (AGST Supporting Tables) and specifically identified in Part IV of the 
Schedules annexed to the Marrakesh Protocol can be found in WTO docume nt series G/AG/AGST. Supporting 
Tables of acceded Members are now circulated in the WT/ACC or WT/ACC/SPEC document series. These 
documents can be obtained from the WTO website

2  THE HARMONIZED SYSTEM AN D ITS AMENDMENTS  
2.1  Introduction of the Harmonized System  
2.1.  Following the entry into force of the Harmonized System (HS)11 on 1 January 1988 (HS88), 
the pre -UR schedules of those GATT Contracting Parties that were also contracting parties to the HS 
Convention were required to be transposed into the HS nomenclature12.  The GATT Committee on 
Tariff Concessions developed procedures for this purpose13.  A number of schedules were transposed, 
certified , and annexed to Protocols14 and some Members unde rtook to renegotiate their schedules 
in connection with the implementation of the HS.  The Geneva (1994) Protocol15 was one of these 
tariff protocols and the timing of its conclusion coincided with the preparation of Members' Uruguay 
Round Schedules, but it  did not enter into force.  On 10 November 2005, the Council for Trade in 
Goods adopted special procedures to certify these Schedules16.  The status of  pre-UR schedules is 
set out in column 4 of the table.  The term "None" is used for those Mem bers which di d not have a 
 
11 The Harmonized System (HS) nomenclature, which was developed in the World Customs Organization 
(formerly the Customs Cooperation Council), entered into force on 1  January  1988 through a Convention.  As of 
21 February 2020 , there are 1 11 WTO Members (count ing the EU -27 as one), which are contracting parties to 
the HS Convention.  The remaining 25 WTO Members apply the HS in spite of not being contracting parties to it.  
12 Article 3 of the HS Convention obliges HS contracting parties to ensure that their cust oms tariff and 
statistical nomenclatures are in conformity with the Harmonized System.  It is to be noted that  those GATT 
Contracting Parties that were not contracting parties to the HS, but nevertheless applied the HS in their national 
customs tariff, als o undertook this exercise in order to keep the authentic texts of their schedules up to date and 
in conformity with their national customs tariff.

  GATT S chedule of concessions.  It should, however, be noted that these Members did submit a 
Schedule either during the Uruguay Round or at the time of their accession  to the WTO .   
2.2.  The Harmonized System Committee of the World Customs Organizat ion (WCO) undertakes a 
periodic review of the HS nomenclature to take account of changes in technology and patterns in 
international trade, and recommends amendments to it.  The first set of such modifications came 
into force on 1  January  1992 (HS92).  A s econd, more substantial, set of amendments came into 
force on 1  January  1996 (HS96), a third one on 1  January  2002 (HS2002) , a fourth one on 
1 January  2007 (HS2007) , and a fifth one on 1 January  2012 (HS2012).17  A sixth set of 
amendments entered  into force  on 1 January  2017 (HS2017) . Some necessary correctio ns and 
complementary amendments, which were inadvertently omitted, were accepted pursuant to the 
Recommendation of 11 June 2015 of the Customs Cooperation Council and entered into force on 
1 January 2018.  However, HS contracting parties were encouraged to implement them both on 
1 January  2017.   A seventh  set of amendments is expected to enter into force on 1 January  2022 
(HS2022) . 
2.2  First Amendments to the HS (HS92)  
2.3.  With a view to keeping the authentic texts of GATT schedules up to date and in conformity with 
the national customs tariff, in 1991 the Committee on Tariff Concessions adopted simplified 
procedures to implement the HS92 and any future changes relating to the HS.18  Eleven GATT 
Contracting Parties followed these procedures and submitted the required documentation, with only 
one of them still pending.19  
2.3  Second Amendments to the HS (HS96)  
2.4.  Members made use of the 1991 procedures to introduce  modifications to the schedules 
resulting from the introduction of HS96.  A total of 49 Members submitted the required 
documentation, out of which:  29 were full loose -leaf schedules20, 19 reflected only the HS96 
changes, and one included information on a preliminary basis.21 The General Council adopted a 
"collective waiver" , subject to certain conditions,  suspending the application of Article II of the  GATT 
for 33  Members.22  This initial waiver was renewed on ten occasions and covered a varying number of 
Members.23  The General Council noted at its last renewal that, although it would be the last time that 
an extension of the HS96 waiver would be granted collectively, Members were not precluded from 
requesting the suspension of GATT Article II on an individual basis .24  Since then, the General Council 
has adopted 48 individual waiver requests from 13 Members.25  
2.5.  Noting that 64 developing Members had not followed the 1991 procedures to introduce the 
modifications resulting from the introduction of HS96, the General Council adopted a new set of

  ad hoc procedures.26  It instructed the Secretariat to conduct the technical work for the transposition 
of the Schedules, using the Consolidated Tariff Schedule database (CTS) as a working tool.  The files 
were subject to multilateral review in dedicated sessions of the Committee on Market Access.  The 
transposition of all the 64 Members concerned  has been conclude d and certified .27 
2.4  Third Amendment to the HS (HS2002)  
2.6.  On 18 July 2001, t he General Council established a new set of procedures for the introduction 
of HS2002 changes into the schedules of concessions.28  Although HS2002 had been implemented 
by most WTO Membe rs, only 35 of them submitted the documentation required by these 
procedures.29  With a view to further facilitating and simplifying the introduction of HS2002 changes 
in the schedules of concessions of all Members, on 15  February  2005, the General Council adopted 
a set of amendments to the procedures in which the Consolidated Tariff Schedule (CTS) database 
was to be used as a working tool.  The Secretariat was instructed to transpose the schedules of all 
developing countries.30   
2.7.  Although the Secretariat con cluded the technical work on most Schedules, procedures 
remained outstanding for a high number of files , in spite of the absence of comments by other 
Members and due to the lack of approval or comments by the Member concerned.31  With a view to 
redressing t his situation, on 14  December  2010, the General Council adopted a new decision 
amending the procedures.32  As a result , modifications to 116 schedules have been approved at the 
multilateral reviews and circulated pursuant to the 1980 procedures for rectification and modification 
of schedule s33. One procedure has not been certified due to ongoing domestic procedures by the 
concerned Member.  
2.8.  The General  Council has adopted eighteen  "collective waivers" and one individual waiver 
suspending the applicati on of Article II of the GATT34 on an annual basis until 31  December  2020.  The 
latest waiver applies to one Member.35  The General Council established, in addition, a set of 
procedures and conditions that would need to be followed by any other Member wishing  to be 
covered by the waiver.36 
2.5  Fourth Amendment to the HS (HS2007)  
2.9.  On 15 December 2006, t he General Council adopted procedures for the introduction of HS2007 
changes  into schedules of concessions.37  On 30 November 2011, Members adopted a decision 
amending the transposition procedures leading to the certification of HS2007 changes.38  Under the 
revised procedures, developed country Members, and developing countries that made a notification 
by 31  Decem ber 2011, shall  prepare their own transposition  while t he Secretariat shall transpose 
the schedules of all remaining Members.  
2.10.   As a result of the procedures for the introduction of HS2007 changes into schedules of 
concessions, 1 10 schedules have been approved in multilateral review  and circulated pursuant to the 
 
26 Decision of 27  May 2009 (WT/L/756), Procedures Leading to the Verification and Certification of HS96 
Changes Relating to the Schedules of 64 Members.

country Members, and developing countries that made a notification by 31 December 2011, shall 
prepare their own transposition and the Secretariat shall transpose the schedules of all remaining 
Members ".   
2.13.   As a result of the procedures for the introduction of HS20 12 changes int o schedules of 
concessions, 99 schedules have been approved in multilateral review  and circulated pursuant to the 
1980 procedures for rectification and modification of schedules .43  Four of these procedures remain 
ongoing.  
2.14.   The General Council has adopted nine "collective waivers" suspending the application of Article 
II of the GATT on an annual basis until 31  December  2020.44  The waiver also provides that any

  2.8  Status of HS Transpositions  
2.17.   The status of HS92 changes and the introduction of the HS are included in Column 4 of  the 
table as it relates to pre -UR schedules.  Column 6 reflects the situation of HS96, HS2002, HS2007 , 
HS2012 and HS2017 changes.  This column also indicates, for those transposition procedures which 
remain pending, whether or not the Member is currently under a waiver suspending the application 
of Article  II of the GATT.  
3  RECTIFICATIONS/MODIF ICATIONS OF SCHEDULE S 
3.1.  Since the WTO Agreement entered into force, the overwhelming majority of the rectifications 
and modifications of Schedules have been given legal effect through a Decision by the GATT 1947 
Council entitled "Procedures for Modification and Rectification of Schedules of Tariff Concessions", 
which was adopted on 26 March 1980 (the "1980 Procedures").50  The preamble of these procedures 
recognizes the im portance of keeping the authentic texts of Schedules up to date and of ensuring 
that they are aligned with the texts of corresponding items in national customs tariffs.  
3.2.  Modifications made pursuant to the 1980 Procedures have been undertaken by Members for a 
wide range of issues, including, inter alia:  (i) rectifications of a technical nature that do not affect 
the scope of the concessions; (ii)  concessions made in the context of the Ministerial Declaration on 
Trade in Information Technology Products (ITA)51; (iii)  revisions and additions to the product 
coverage of the Pharmaceutical Understanding (Pharma)52; (iv) bilateral sectorial negotiations (e.g. 
distilled spirits); (v)  modifications pursuant to Annex 5 of the Agreement on Agriculture; 
(vi) concessions made in the context of the Declaration on the Expansion of Trade in Information 
Technology Products (ITA Expansion)53; (vii) autonomous improvements in concessions , and (viii) 
modifications to Part IV of Schedules, including the Nairobi  Decisi on on the elimination of export 
subsidies (the Nairobi Decision).  Column 7 reflects the situation concerning the rectifications and 
modifications of schedules. Those pertaining to the ITA, ITA expansion, Pharma, Other Duties and 
Charges (ODCs), Annex 5 of the Agreement on Agriculture, the Nairobi Decision, and the results of 
bilateral negotiations on distilled spirits have been expressly identified.  All others have been labelled 
as "other".   
3.3.  Leaving aside the amendments relating to HS transpositions, a pproximately 231 proposals for 
modifications/rectifications of schedules have been put forward for the consideration of Members 
since the establishment of the WTO54, 25 of which have been formally concluded by means of a 
Procès -Verbal  of rectification and 198 through a certificati on under the 1980 P rocedures .  In terms 
of the latter, 26 procedures which have not been concluded for various reasons , including 5 files 
currently within the three -month period; 2 procedures that were withdrawn, 3 that are awaiting the 
completion of domestic procedures ; and 16 with outstanding reservations .55   
4  RENEGOTIATIONS  UNDER GATT ARTICLE XXVIII  
4.1.  Members are allowed to modify or withdraw concessions from their schedule through

  "Modification of Schedules" is the main provision dealing with the renegotiation of a tariff 
concession.56 
4.2.  A note by the GATT Secretariat  from 1957 , concerning arrangem ents for negotiations under 
Article  XXVIII of the GATT 1994, set out the procedural guidelines that were used until 
November  1980 when the current guidelines for procedures were adopted.57  Although the early 
practice makes it difficult to determine the exa ct number of renegotiations that took place under the 
GATT 1947, the Secretariat's records show that at least 42 GATT Contracting Parties initiated roughly 
300 renegotiations between 1951 and 1994.58 
4.3.  The 1980 Guidelines for Procedures for negotiations under  Article XXVIII provide that, once 
concluded,  a Member undertaking such  negotiations should  submit to the Secretariat: (i)  a report 
and a joint letter upon completion of each bilateral negotiation and (ii)  a final report upon completion 
of all its bilatera l negotiations.  In practice, however, only 19 final reports were received by the 
Secretariat for the 79  renegotiations initiated between 1981 and 1994.59  The status recorded by 
the Secretariat for renegotiations lacking a final report is diverse.  While i n a few cases the 
Contracting Parties withdrew the invocation of Article XXVIII, in others they only submitted partial 
information regarding the bilateral agreements reached.  No further information has been received 
by the Secretariat after the initiation  of many  of these renegotiations and only a few of them were 
formally carried -over into the WTO.   
4.4.  It remains unclear for the majority of these Pre -UR renegotiations whether they were: 
(i) concluded with the relevant Contracting Parties and their results i ncorporated into the Schedule 
annexed to the Marrakesh Protocol to the GATT 1994 (MP) during the Uruguay  Round, (ii)  concluded, 
but its results overridden by the Schedule annexed to the MP, (iii)  concluded with all the relevant 
Contracting Parties, but never reported or included in a schedule, or (iv)  are still ongoing.  
4.5.  There have been  48 Article XXVIII procedures that have been either initiated since the WTO 
Agreement entered into force on 1 January 1995, or that were initiated under the GATT 1947 and 
concluded under the WTO .  Of these : 23 have been concluded  and certified  through the 1980 
Procedures , seven  have been concluded, but have not been certified for various reasons , five have 
been withdrawn, and three procedures relate to schedules that were wi thdrawn in the context of  the 
enlargement of the European Union60. There is also one request to enter into negotiations under 
Article XXVIII:4 that has not been approved61.  The remaining nine renegotiations  are still ongoing.62  
For more detailed information, see document G/MA/W/123/Rev. 6. 
 
56 The provisions of the Understanding on the Interpretation  of Article XXVIII of the GATT 1994 and the 
Procedures for Negotiation under Article XXVIII, Guidelines adopted on 10  November  1980 (GATT 
BISD  27S/26), are also applicable.   
57 In compliance with instructions given by the  Contracting Parties (L/641, GATT BISD  6S/158) the 
Executive Secretary issued a note concerning the arrangements for negotiations under GATT Article XXVIII on 
31 May 1957 (GATT doc. L/635).  A revised version of the procedural guidelines w as prepared in 19 78 (GATT 
doc. L/4651) which served as the basis for the technical discussions at the Committee on Tariff Concessions, 
which were finally adopted as guidelines on 10  November  1980.  See GATT doc. C/113 and C/113/Corr.1,  GATT 
BISD  27S/26.  
58 Due to their prov isional nature, tariff commitments made in the 1947 Geneva negotiations had an 
initial validity of three years.  Consequently, the original drafting of GATT Article XXVIII contained no provision 
for the modification or withdrawal of these commitments befor e 1 January 1951.  Contracting Parties initially 
extended the validity of these Schedules through "Declarations on the Continued Application of Schedules".  
During the Torquay Tariff Conference of 1950 , the negotiations for new concessions took place in pa rallel with 
some renegotiations.  The Review Session of the GATT that took place subsequently disposed of the need to 
extend the validity of the Schedules periodically.  It also proposed amendments to several Articles of the GATT 
(including Article XXVIII)  and proposed the incorporation of a new Article XXVIII bis entitled "Tariff 
negotiations".  These amendments were formally adopted through the Protocol Amending the Preamble and 
Parts II and III of the General Agreement of 10  March  1955, which entered int o force on 7 October 1957.   
59 See footnote 46.  The status of GATT Article XXVIII negotiations up to June  1980 can be consulted in 
GATT doc. TAR/W/7 of 18  June 1980.  
60 See Bulgaria, Croatia, and Hungary.  
61 See Trinidad and Tobago.  
62 The number of renegotiations is calculated based on all documents circulated under the G/SECRET 
document symbol, plus document Secret/347, and renegotiations of schedules in connection with the HS 
transposition from Sri Lanka (G/SECRET/HS/11) and the Domi nican Republic (G/L/4 and G/C/M/3).

  4.6.  Column 8 reflects the status recorded by the Secretariat for all renegotiations invoked from 
1 January  1981 when the current procedures started being implemented.  The table also includes 
renegotiations related t o Article XXIV:6  of the GATT .  The term "unclear" has been used to identify 
those GATT renegotiations initiated between 1981 and 1994 in which there is no final report or any 
other formal document indicating the conclusion of such negotiations.  It should finally be noted that 
19 Article XXVIII renegotiations invoked before the end of the UR by the EEC -9 and some of the 
EC-15 member States are not reflected therein.63   
5  CURRENT SITUATION OF  SCHEDULES  
5.1.  The situation of the Schedules of concessions has improved considerably over the last years 
thanks to a number of Decisions adopted by Members, and in particular those relating to  HS 
amendments.  However, Members are still at very different stages with res pect to their schedules.  
Some Members currently applying HS201 7 still have pre -UR concessions scheduled in a different 
nomenclature.  In these cases, and although the technical work undertaken in the context of the 
transpositions  has considerably minimize d the problem  over time, Members still need to transpose 
the relevant concessions into the HS.  Moreover, the HS transposition work at the WTO continues to 
lag behind with respect to the nomenclature used in practice by Members , which may complicate 
the comparison of applied and bound rates.  Finally, it would be advisable for Members to clarify the 
status of the renegotiations under Article XXVIII of the GATT that remain outstanding or that lack a 
final report, and in particular for those Pre -UR cases labe lled as "unclear".  
 
63 The 19 GATT renegotiations that were initiated during the period 1981 -1994 and which are not 
reflected in the table are the following:  EEC -9 (SECRET/270, SECRET/286, SECRET/296, SECRET/310, 
SECRET/311, SECRET/312, SEC RET/317 and SECRET/325), Austria (SECRET/291 and SECRET/323), Finland 
(SECRET/320 and SECRET/321), Portugal (SECRET/300), Spain (SECRET/308), and Sweden (SECRET/278, 
SECRET/299, SECRET/322, SECRET/327 and SECRET/331).
