SITUATION OF SCHEDULES OF WTO MEMBERS 
 
NOTE BY THE SECRETARIAT1 
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 attach e d  a n  u p d a t e  o f  t h e  s t a t u s  o f  M e m b e r s '  
schedules incorporating information up to 29 April 2013.  The introductory text contained in Annex II of the original document G/MA/63 has b een updated to take into account developments 
since the last revision. 
 
_______________ 
 
1  INTRODUCTION 
1.1.  All WTO Members have a schedule of tariff concessions which is either annexed to the 
Marrakesh Protocol to the GATT 1994 or to a Protocol of Accession
3.  Some Members have also 
schedules pre-dating the Uruguay Round which reflect concessions granted previously.4 
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 HS19965, HS20026, HS20077 and HS20128.  The pending work on the 
schedules of concessions derives from obligations related to the introduction of the Harmonized 
System and its subsequent amendments, the results of the Uruguay Round, technical 
modifications or rectifications to the schedules, as well as renegotiations under Article XXVIII of 
the GATT 1994.  Some background information on these issues has been provided for ease of reference.

 2  THE HARMONIZED SYSTEM AND ITS AMENDMENTS 
2.1  Introduction of the Harmonized System 
2.1.  Following the entry into force of the Harmonized System (HS)
9 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 nomenclature
10.  The GATT Committee 
on Tariff Concessions developed procedures for this purpose11.  A number of schedules were 
transposed, certified and annexed to Protocols12.   Some Members undertook to renegotiate their 
schedules in connection with the implementation of the HS.  The situation regarding pre-UR 
schedules is set out in column 4 of the table.  The term "None" is used for those Members which 
did not have a GATT schedule 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.   
2.2.  The Harmonized System Committee of the World Customs Organization (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 second, mo re substantial, set of amendments came into 
force on 1 January 1996 (HS96), a third one on 1 January 2002 (HS2002) and a fourth one on 
1 January 2007 (HS2007).  The most recent set of amendments was introduced on 1 January 2012 (HS2012).
13    
                                               
9 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 18 April 2013, there are 99 WTO Members (counting the EU-27 as one), which are contracting parties to the 
HS Convention.  Practically all the remaining 33 WTO Members apply the HS in spite of not being contracting parties to it.   
10 Article 3 of the HS Convention ob liges HS contracting parties to en sure that their customs tariff and 
statistical nomenclatures are in conformity with the Ha rmonized System.  It is to be noted that those GATT 
Contracting Parties that were not co ntracting parties to the HS, but nevertheless applied the HS in their 
national customs tariff, also undertook this exercise in order to keep the authentic texts of their schedules up 
to date and in conformity with their national customs tariff.

  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, the Committee on Tariff Concessions adopted in 1991 simplified procedures to implement the HS92 and any future changes relating to the HS.
14  Eleven GATT 
Contracting Parties followed these procedures an d submitted the required documentation, with 
only one of them still pending.15 
2.3  Second Amendments to the HS (HS96) 
2.4.  Members made use of the 1991 procedures for introducing modifications to the schedules 
resulting from the introduction of HS96.  A total of 49 Members submitted the required HS96 documentation, out of which: 29 were full loose-leaf schedules
16, 19 reflected only the HS96 
changes and one included information on a preliminary basis.17  The General Council adopted, 
subject to certain conditions, a "collective waiver" suspending the application of Article II of the 
GATT for 33 Members.18  This initial waiver was renewed on ten occasions and covered a varying 
number of Members.19  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.20  Since then, 
the General Council has adopted 48 individual waiver requests from 13 Members.21  
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 in 2010 a new set of procedures.
22  This Decision 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 multilat eral review in dedicated sessions of the Committee 
on Market Access.  The procedures have almost been finalized for the 64 Members concerned, including the circulation pursuant to the 1980 procedures for rectification and modification of 
62 schedules, of which 61 have been certified.
23 
2.4  Third Amendment to the HS (HS2002) 2.6.  The General Council established on 18 July 2001 a set of new procedures for the introduction 
of HS2002 changes into the schedules of concessions.
24  Although HS2002 had been implemented 
by most WTO Members, only 35 of them subm itted the documentation required by these 
procedures.25  With a view to further facilitating and simplifying the introduction of HS2002 
changes in the schedules of concessions of all Members, the General Council adopted on 
15 February  2005 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.26    
2.7.  Although the Secretariat concluded the tec hnical work on most of 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.27  With a view 
to redressing this situation, the General Council adopted on 14 December 2010 a new decision amending the procedures.
28   
2.8.  As a result of the amendments in the proc edures of the 18 July 2001 Decision, modifications 
to 109 schedules have been circulated pursuant  to the 1980 procedures for rectification and 
modification of schedules and 103 of them have been certified29. 
2.9.  The General Council has adopted twelve "collective waivers" and one individual waiver 
suspending the application of Article II of the GATT 30 on an annual basis until 31  December  2013.  
The latest applies to 8 Members (counting the EU-27 as one).31  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.32 
2.5  Fourth Amendment to the HS (HS2007) 2.10.  The General Council adopted on 15 December 2006 procedures for the introduction of 
HS2007 changes into schedules of concessions.
33  On 30 November 2011, Members adopted a 
decision amending the transposition procedures  leading to the certification of HS2007 changes.34  
Under the revised procedures, developed 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. 
2.11.  The General Council has also adopted seven "collective waivers" suspending the application of 
Article II of the GATT on an annual basis until 31  December  2013.
35  The waivers also provide that 
any other Member could be included therein upon request.  Six Members have made use of this 
provision.36  There are currently 29 Members (counting the EU-27 as one) covered by the seventh 
HS2007 collective waiver.37

28 Decision of 14 December 2010 (WT/L/807), Amendment to the Procedures Leading to the 
Certification of HS2002 Changes. 
29 See JOB/MA/42/Rev.7. In addition, the certificat ion of HS2002 changes to Australia's schedule of 
concessions will be issued shortly.   
30 The Decisions are contained in documents WT/L/469, WT/L/477 (in respect of Romania), WT/L/511, 
WT/L/562, WT/L/598, WT/L/638, WT/L/674, WT/L/712,  WT/L/744, WT/L/786, WT/L/808, WT/L/832, and 
WT/L/873. 
31 The waiver decision contained in document WT/L/ 873 now covers the following Members:  Argentina, 
Australia, China, Croa tia, European Union, Iceland, India, and Ur uguay.  Brazil and Malaysia are no longer 
covered as they have concluded the exercise. 
32 The Decision indicates that those Members not list ed in the Annex, that have approved their draft 
HS02 files and whose draft HS02 files have been released for multilateral review, shall notify the Committee on 
Market Access of their wish to be included in the waiver decision.

36 The Decision provides that those Members not listed in the Annex may notify the Committee on 
Market Access of its wish to be included in the waiver  decision. Thailand, Mexico, Pakistan, Singapore, Israel, 
and the Philippines have used this provision (WT/L/675/Add.1, WT/L/675/Add.2, WT/L/675/Add.3, WT/L/675/Add.4, WT/L/787/Add.1, and WT/L/787/Add.2 respectively). 
37 The annex to the seventh waiver (WT/L/874) lists the following Members:  Argentina; Australia; 
Brazil; Canada; China; Costa Rica; Croatia; Dominican Republic; El Salvador; European Union; Guatemala; 
Honduras; Hong Kong, China; India; Israel; Korea ; Macao, China; Malaysia; Mexico; New Zealand; Nicaragua; 
Norway; Pakistan; Philippines;  Singapore; Switzerland; Thailand; the United States; and Uruguay.   G/MA/W/23/Rev.9

  2.12.  The Secretariat has prepared 63 files that are currently being considered by each Member 
concerned, and 21 files which have been released for multilateral review.38 
2.6  Fifth Amendments to the HS (HS2012) 2.13.  The General Council adopted on 30 November 2011 the procedures for the introduction and 
certification of HS2012 into schedules of concessions.
39 Under this decision, developed country 
Members, and developing countries that made a notification by 31 December 2011, shall prepare their own transposition and the Secretariat sh all transpose the schedules of all remaining 
Members. However, the Secretariat will not begin with technical work in this area until the HS2007 
work has been concluded. 
2.14.  The General Council has adopted two "collective waivers" suspending the application of 
Article II of the GATT on an annual basis until 31 December 2013
40. The waiver also provides that 
any other Member could be included therein upon request.  There are currently 26 Members 
(counting the EU-27 as one) covered by the latest HS2012 waiver.41 
2.7  Status of HS Transpositions 
2.15.  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 and HS2012 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 SCHEDULES 
3.1.  Following the Uruguay Round, a number of WTO Members submitted rectifications and 
modifications to their UR schedules.  The procedures for the rectifications/modifications of 
schedules were adopted by the GATT Contracting Parties on 26 March 1980
42.  Modifications made 
pursuant to these procedures have included, inter alia : (i) modifications of a technical nature that 
not affect the scope of the concessions; (ii) concessions made in the context of the Ministerial 
Declaration on Trade in Information Technology Products (ITA)43; (iii) revisions and additions to 
the product coverage of the Pharmaceutical Understanding (Pharma)44; (iv) bilateral sectorial 
negotiations (e.g. distilled spirits); (v) modifications pursuant to Annex 5 of the Agreement on 
Agriculture; and (vi) autonomous improvements in concessions.   
3.2.  Column 7 reflects the situation concerning the rectifications and modifications of schedules. 
Those pertaining to the ITA, the Pharma, Other Duties and Charges (ODCs), Annex 5 of the 
Agreement on Agriculture, and the results of bilateral negotiations on distilled spirits have been 
expressly identified.  All others have been labelled as "other".  Approximately 177 proposals for modifications/rectifications of schedules have been put forward for the consideration of Members 
since the establishment of the WTO
45, 23 of which have been formally concluded by means of a 
Procès-Verbal  of rectification and 141 through a certification.  There are approximately

  13 procedures which have not been concluded for various reasons (reservations, domestic 
approval procedures, etc.) or have not been pursued further by the Member concerned.46   
4  RENEGOTIATIONS UNDER GATT ARTICLE XXVIII 4.1.  Members are allowed to modify or withdraw concessions from their schedule through 
negotiation and agreement with other Member s.  Article XXVIII of the GATT 1994 entitled 
"Modification of Schedules" is the main provision dealing with the renegotiation of a tariff concession.
47   
4.2.  A 1957 note by the GATT Secretariat, concerning arrangements 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.
48  Although the early 
practice makes it difficult to determine the exact 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 1994.49   
4.3.  The 1980 procedures provide for a Member undertaking GATT Article XXVIII negotiations to 
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 bilateral negotiations.  In practice, 
however, only 19 final reports were received by the Secretariat for the 79 renegotiations initiated 
between 1981 and 1994.50  The status recorded by the Secretariat for renegotiations lacking a 
final report is diverse.  While in 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 
these renegotiations and only a few of them we re 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 incorporated 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 
on-going. 
4.5.  There have been 38 requests to enter into  renegotiations under GATT Article XXVIII since the 
establishment of the WTO in 1995, 5 of which have  been withdrawn, 13 have been concluded and 
formally certified, and 7 have been concluded, but have not been certified for various reasons.  
Although the remaining 13 are in principle still on-going, it should be noted that three of them 
                                               
46 The estimate takes account of procedures which we re subsequently replaced or overtaken by other 
procedures.  
47 The provisions of the Understanding on the Inte rpretation of Article XXVIII of the GATT 1994 and the 
Procedures for Negotiation under Arti cle XXVIII, Guidelines adopted on 10  November  1980 (GATT 
BISD 27S/26), are also applicable.   
48 In compliance with instructions given by the Contracting Parties (L/641, GATT BISD  6S/158) the 
Executive Secretary issued a note concerning the arra ngements for negotiations under GATT Article XXVIII on 
31 May 1957 (GATT doc. L/635).  A revised version of the procedural guidelines were prepared in 1978 (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. 
49 Due to their provisional 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 before 1 January 1951.  Contracting Parties initially extended the validity of these Schedules through "Decla rations on the Continued A pplication of Schedules".  
During the Torquay Tariff Conference of 1950 the negotiations for new concessions took place in parallel with some renegotiations.  The Review Session of the GATT th at took place subsequently disposed of the need to 
extend the validity of the Schedules periodically.  It al so 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 into force on 7 October 1957.   
50 See footnote 46.  The status of GATT Article XXVIII negoti ations up to June  1980 can be consulted in 
GATT doc. TAR/W/7 of 18  June 1980. G/MA/W/23/Rev.9

  relate to schedules, which were withdrawn in the context of an enlargement of the European Union 
(i.e. Hungary, Bulgaria, and Croatia).51 
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 to GATT Article XXIV:6.  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 th e end of the UR by the EEC-9 and some of the

5  CURRENT SITUATION OF SCHEDULES 5.1.  The situation of the Schedules of concession s has improved considerably over the last years 
thanks to a number of specific Decisions adopted by Members, in particular with regard to the HS 
amendments.  However, Members still are at very different stages with respect to their schedules.  Some Members currently applying the HS, and even HS2012, still have pre-UR concessions which 
are scheduled in a different nomenclature.  In these cases, and although the technical work 
undertaken in the context of HS1996, HS2002 and HS2007 has minimized considerably the problem, Members still need to transpose the relevant concessions into the HS.  Moreover, the HS 
transposition work is still lagging behind with respect to nomenclature used in practice by 
Members, a situation that was exacerbated by th e implementation of the fifth amendment to the 
HS on 1 January 2012.  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 labelled as "unclear". 
                                               
51 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/S ECRET/HS/11) and the Dominican Republic (G/L/4 and G/C/M/3). 
52 The 19 GATT renegotiations that were initiate d 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, SECRET/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).
