The General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) was first signed in 1947. The agreement was designed to provide an international forum that encouraged free trade between member states by regulating and reducing tariffs on traded goods and by providing a common mechanism for resolving trade disputes. GATT membership now includes more than 110 countries. Consideration of GATT's relationship to environmental policy is an emerging concern in trade and environmental policy circles. Until the recently concluded Uruguay Round of GATT negotiations, the word environment did not appear in the GATT text. Several provisions and sections of GATT may be relevant to environmental issues, however. The following sections of GATT are often referenced in the examination of trade-environment issues. The excerpts are from GATT as amended through 1966, originally digitized by the Multilaterals Project of the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, Tufts University: The GATT Final Act Embodying the Results o

The General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade lays down the principles to be followed by the member countries for imposition of anti-dumping duties, countervailing duties and safeguard measures. Pursuant to the GATT, 1994, detailed guidelines have been prescribed under the specific agreements which have also been incorporated in the national legislation of the member countries of the WTO. Indian laws were amended with effect from 1.1.95 to bring them in line with the provisions of the respective GATT agreements. Dumping is said to have taken place when an exporter sells a product to India at a price less than the price prevailing in its domestic market. However, the phenomenon of dumping is per se not condemnable as it is recognized that producers sell their goods at different prices to different market. It is also not unusual for prices to vary from time to time in the light of supply and demand conditions. It is also recognized that price discrimination in the form of dumping is a commo

The General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (hereinafter “GATT”) of 1947 emerged from the post-Second World War negotiations on international economic cooperation. These negotiations resulted in the Bretton Woods agreements – the International Monetary Fund and the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development – but there was the belief that the Bretton Woods institutions needed to be complemented by an organization dealing with trade. The negotiations for the Havana Charter, that would incorporate an international trade organization (hereinafter “ITO”), were based on the view held in both the United States and the United Kingdom, who took the lead in the negotiations, that trade liberalization was essential to avoid the protectionism of the inter-War years which had been harmful to most economies. The United States was interested in seeing the end of British imperial preferences and the United Kingdom was interested in the lowering of the high United States tariffs.

The General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade was a PAC T originally adopted at Geneva on October 30, 1947. It governed tariff concessions on industrial products as agreed to among its 23 original s ignatories.

The negotiations were driven by the postwar agenda of the main Allied powers, the UNITED STAT ES, the UNITED KINGDOM, and Canada, to create postwar institutions to prevent a reemergence of war and depression. This aim could be accomplished, in their view, only by ending economic nationalism and the extensive protectionist policies that had characterized the inter-war period.

The Agreement-a multilateral treaty embodying reciprocal rights and obligations-is the only multilateral instrument that lays down agreed rules for international trade. It entered into force on 1 January 1948 with 23 contracting parties. Since then, ICITO has provided the GATT secretariat.

The General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) was originally created by the Bretton Woods Conference as part of a larger plan for economic recovery after World War II. The GATT’s main purpose was to reduce barriers to international trade. This was achieved through the reduction of tariff barriers, quantitative restrictions and subsidies on trade through a series of different agreements. The GATT was an agreement, not an organization. Originally, the GATT was supposed to become a full international organization like the World Bank or IMF called the International Trade Organization. However, the agreement was not ratified, so the GATT remained simply an agreement. The functions of the GATT have been replaced by the World Trade Organization.
