WTO Issues 2021 Edition of World Tariff Profiles

The publication has been jointly issued by the WTO, International Trade Centre and the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD).

Summary tables allow cross-country comparisons of the average "bound" or maximum tariff each economy may apply to its imports and the average tariff it applies in practice. One-page profiles provide more detailed data for each economy, with tariffs broken down by product groups.

Each profile also shows the tariffs levied on its exports by its main trading partners. A summary table provides import and export profiles for each economy. Statistics on non-tariff measures by economy and product group complement the data on tariffs.
