WORKING PARTY ON THE ACCESSION OF 
KAZAKHSTAN TO THE WTO 
SUBMISSION BY THE REPUBLIC OF KAZAKHSTAN 
Revision 
 The following submission is being circulated to  Members of the Working Party, at the request 
of the Delegation of the Republic of Kazakhstan.  It is confirmatory of the revised proposal on 
agriculture orally presented to Members at the Agriculture Plurilateral, chaired by the 
WTO Secretariat, on Thursday, 10 October 2013.

  PLURILATERAL NEGOTIATIONS ON AGRICULTURE 
REVISED PROPOSAL 
ON DOMESTIC SUPPORT AND EXPORT SUBSIDIES 
With the purpose to finalize agriculture negotiations, Kazakhstan proposes the following: 
1.  Domestic support:  
- de minimis  level of 8.5%; 
- total AMS commitment level of US$2.3 billion. 
From the date of Kazakhstan's accession to the WTO through 31 December 2020, the total 
AMS commitment level will be reduced from US$2.3 billion to US$2.0 billion in equal steps during 
the requested transition period.  This will enab le the Government of Kazakhstan to implement 
effectively the "Agrobusiness 2020" Programme.   
 
From the date of Kazakhstan's accession through 31 December 2020, the sum of 
product-specific AMS will not exceed 50%  of the total AMS commitment level.  
 
Kazakhstan is ready to reduce AMS in the above mentioned manner based on the 
understanding that Members will ag ree with Kazakhstan's request for de minimis  level at 8.5%. 
 
 2.  Export subsidies:  
 
Export subsidies will be eliminated by Kazakhstan upon its accession to the WTO provided 
that the proposed domestic support package is fully agreed upon by Members as a result of 
negotiations on agriculture support measures.   
 
Based on the above, Kazakhstan looks forward to conclusion of plurilateral negotiations on 
agriculture support measures.

PROPOSED MODIFICATIONS  TO THE TEMPLATE FOR NOTIFYING  
CHANGES TO AN EXISTI NG RTA  
INFORMAL NOTE BY THE  SECRETARIAT  
 The Secretariat receives a number of notifications of changes to existing RTAs every year.  
 Currently, while no common format has been adopted by the Committee, a practice has 
been developed to circulate notification of changes in accordance with the template shown in page 
2 of this document.  
 In an effort to improve the current template  and red uce the potential for confusion, 
especially regarding the existing RTA being modified , the Secretariat is proposing a number of  
modifications, reproduced in page 3 of this document.  In particular:  
 Members are to identify the existing RTA being modified;  
 the document reference of the original notification is to be provided; and  
 indication shall be provided on whether the change concerns trade in goods, services or 
both. 
The new template would apply to RTAs whether notified under GATT Article XXIV, the 
Enabli ng Clause or GATS Article V.
