products difficult and/or costly. The term covers any restriction or quota,
charge, or policy, other than traditional customs duties, domestic support
programs, discriminatory labeling and health standards, and exclusive
business practices which limit the access of imported goods. NTBs may result
from government or private sector actions.

Non-Tariff Barriers (NTBs)
- These are measures other than tariffs imposed by governments which
restrict imports with or without the intent to do so. Such barriers have

licensing and quotas, have risen.
