2 May 2018 - 3 May 2018
WTO Members intensified work to ensure the full implementation of the Trade Facilitation Agreement (TFA) at the 2 May meeting of the Committee on Trade Facilitation, which was followed by a dedicated session on technical assistance and support for capacity building. Members also elected a new Committee chair, Ambassador Dalia Kadišienė (Lithuania).
The Committee meeting also featured an experience-sharing segment that focused on the themes of National Trade Facilitation Committees, transit, and broader implementation issues. Members compared notes on successful strategies and national issues and regional initiatives relating to the resolution of implementation challenges.
A dedicated session on technical assistance was held the next day on pertinent issues related to implementation support. Donor members presented their initiatives, often followed by corresponding interventions from recipients of their aid.
