About: Non-tariff measures

                                        What are "non-tariff measures" (NTMs)?
        As the term suggests, NTMs may include any policy measures other than tariffs that can impact trade flows. At a broad level, NTMs can usefully be divided into three categories.
        A first category of NTMs are those imposed on imports. This category includes import quotas, import prohibitions, import licensing and customs procedures, and administration fees. A second category of NTMs are those imposed on exports. These include export taxes, export subsidies, export quotas, export prohibitions and voluntary export restraints.
        These first two categories encompass NTMs that are applied at the border, either to imports or to exports. A third and final category of NTMs are those imposed internally in the domestic economy. Such behind-the-border measures include domestic legislation covering health / technical / product / labor / environmental standards, internal taxes or charges, and domestic subsidies.

The investigation on non-tariff measures is still in progress
and has not been published by its author,
at the moment I can only share my collaboration as Scraper and data cleaner.
I am sure it will be a great job that I will soon share barely authorized.
