Tariff Summary

Summary data on import tariffs for each country, for all industrial items are presented. These summaries include figures for the initial and final tariffs for ten different tariff reduction scenarios. Maximum initial tariff rates and final tariff rates for the first five scenarios and the second five scenarios are available.

• First five scenarios
• Second five scenarios

Other summary figures include:

• Average bound tariff rates (presented using both the Girard and non-Girard treatment of missing bound rates, and using both the maximum and average rates across exporting partners);
• Average percentage changes in bound tariff rates;
• Average percentage changes in applied tariff rates; and
• Average percentage changes in the power of applied tariff rates (this is a measure of the percentage change in the duty-paid price).

These averages are provided for each country for:

• all items
• high tariff items
• all items, by sector
• high tariff items, by sector

High tariff items are products for which the Post Uruguay applied rate is greater than 15 per cent.

The percentage change variables show percentage changes of final from initial levels.
