Iceland

The sixth review of the trade policies and practices of Iceland takes place on 12 and 14 June 2024. The basis for the review is a report by the WTO Secretariat and a report by the Government of Iceland.

Despite the COVID-19-related meeting constraints, the fourteenth Trade Policy Review of Japan has offered us a good opportunity to deepen our understanding of recent developments in, and challenges to, its trade, economic, and investment policies. Since its last TPR in 2017, Japan’s initiatives to maintain its position in the multilateral trading system and take advantage of the opportunities it offers have been greatly appreciated. Indeed, the about 753 advance written questions submitted by 32 Members and the 50 delegations that took the floor during the first and second day underline the importance attached by Members to Japan’s trade and investment policies and practices.
