The World Trade Organization (WTO) has released several documents related to the recent Trade Policy Review of Kazakhstan. These documents include a detailed report by the WTO Secretariat and a policy statement from the Kazakh government.
The WTO Secretariat's report, which is written independently, provides an in-depth analysis of Kazakhstan's trade policies. The full version of this report is available for review.
In addition to the Secretariat's report, there is also a comprehensive policy statement issued by the Kazakh government. This document outlines the government's perspective on its trade policies and practices.
Both reports were discussed during a meeting of the WTO’s Trade Policy Review Body (TPRB), where all WTO members had the opportunity to examine and evaluate Kazakhstan's trade policies.
Trade Policy Reviews are part of an ongoing process mandated by WTO agreements. These reviews ensure that member countries' trade and related policies are regularly examined and evaluated. The frequency of these reviews varies depending on the size of each country, with significant developments being monitored for their potential impact on the global trading system.
