Cross-Border Trade in Services. ANZTEC seeks to facilitate the expansion of cross-border trade in services, improve the efficiency and transparency of the Parties service sectors and competiveness of export trade and work towards progressive liberalisation. The agreement also recognises each party’s right to regulate and introduce new regulations and to provide and fund public services, in a manner that gives due respect to government policy objectives. The following general rules are included in the Cross-Border Trade in Services Chapter, which are subject to specific reservations or exemptions in the services and investment schedules of ANZTEC (see section – Services and Investment Market Access): National treatment: where applicable, Chinese Taipei services and service suppliers operating in New Zealand are entitled to non-discriminatory treatment compared to domestic services and service suppliers; Most-favoured-nation treatment: where applicable, Chinese Taipei services and service suppliers operating in New Zealand are entitled to non-discriminatory treatment compared with services and service suppliers of a non-party “in like circumstances”. This means that Chinese Taipei service suppliers receive the benefits of any better treatment which New Zealand provides to service suppliers of other countries, subject to certain reservations and exceptions (for example, better treatment of service suppliers under an existing trade agreement would not have to be extended to Chinese Taipei service suppliers); Market access: where applicable, Chinese Taipei service suppliers wishing to operate in New Zealand are entitled to access the market without limitation on the number of service suppliers, value of the service transaction, number of service operators, total quantity of service output, total number of persons employed in a service sector or that a service supplier may employ, or the type of legal entity or joint venture which a service supplier may provide a service; and Local presence: in most cases New Zealand cannot require a Chinese Taipei service supplier to establish a local presence (for example, set up a representative office) or be a resident, as a condition for supplying their service in New Zealand. New Zealand’s market access, national treatment, local presence and MFN treatment commitments in ANZTEC go beyond New Zealand’s existing WTO commitments. However, none of these new commitments go beyond New Zealand’s current regulatory environment or policy settings. These g...
Cross-Border Trade in Services. The Cross-Border Trade in Services chapter seeks to facilitate the expansion of cross-border trade in services, including in sectors such as accountancy, construction, engineering and architecture services. Like a number of New Zealand’s existing FTAs, CPTPP takes a broad approach to cross- border trade in services, with services covered unless specifically excluded or listed in a country’s schedule of non-conforming measures. The areas of government procurement, financial services and telecommunications are also covered by separate chapters under CPTPP. The manner in which market access commitments are made for services and investment in CPTPP is through a ‘negative list’ framework. This format provides exporters and investors a simple way to determine whether the services and investment chapters apply to their area of business in another CPTPP market. Under a ‘negative list’ approach, Parties commit to provide market access except in areas where restrictions are listed in individual Parties’ services and investment schedules. These restrictions are known as ‘non-conforming measures’ or ‘reservations’. Each country’s ‘negative list’ has two parts: Annex I and Xxxxx XX: • Annex I sets out existing measures (laws, regulations, decisions, practices and procedures) that CPTPP Parties retain the right to maintain in their present form. Such measures may restrict the access of foreign service suppliers or investors, or may discriminate in favour of domestic service suppliers or investors. These existing measures are subject to a ‘ratchet’ clause. This means that CPTPP Parties commit to automatically extend the benefits of any future autonomous liberalisation of these measures to all other CPTPP countries. Measures in Annex I capture the current level of access provided in a market and cannot be made more restrictive in the future. • Xxxxx XX lists reservations for sectors and activities where CPTPP Parties reserve the right to maintain existing discriminatory measures and/or adopt new or more discriminatory measures in the future. The ratchet clause does not apply to any measure covered by Xxxxx XX. In other words, if a CPTPP Party does not list any restrictions for a particular industry sector it means that Party is committed to not applying any measures that would be inconsistent with certain Chapter obligations, such as, discriminatory practices that favour local investors or service suppliers, and is committing to keep that market open for CPTPP exporters...
