WTO TBT Standards Code Directory Standardizing bodies having accepted the WTO TBT Code of Good Practice for the Preparation, Adoption and Application of Standards Update 2007-08-31 lSO (International Organization for Standardization) and lEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) are non-governmental organizations that form a specialized system for worldwide standardizaton. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. their trade in goods and services. The WTO also administers an agreement concerning the traderelated aspects of intellectual property rights. The WTO serves as the platform in which trade relations among countries evolve through collective debate, negotiation and adjudication. Its four main responsibilities include: administering and implementing the multilateral and plurilateral trade agreements which together make up the WTO; acting as a forum for multilateral trade negotiations; resolving trade disputes between member governments and cooperating with other international institutions involved in global economic policy making. WTO (World Trade Organization) is the legal and institutional foundation of the multilateral trading system.

As of 31 August 2007, there were 151 Members (central governments). The Agreement on Technical Barriers to Trade is one of the 29 individual legal texts of the WTO Agreement which obliges Members to ensure that technical regulations, voluntary standards and conformity assessment procedures do not create unnecessary obstacles to trade. Annex 3 of the TBT Agreement is the Code of Good Practice for the Preparation, Adoption and Application of Standards. In accepting the TBT Agreement, WTO Members agree to ensure that their central government standardizing bodies accept and comply with this Code of Good Practice and agree also to take reasonable measures to ensure that local government, nongovernmental and regional standardizing bodies do the same (for the definition of “standardizing bodies” see ISO/IEC Guide 2). The Code is therefore open to acceptance by all such bodies. The TBT Agreement recognizes the important contribution that international standards and conformity assessment systems can make to improving efficiency of production and facilitating international trade. Where international standards exist or their completion is imminent, therefore, the Code of Good Practice says that standardizing bodies should use them, WTO TBT Standards Code Directory 2007, Update 2007-08-31 or the relevant parts of them, as a basis for standards they develop. It also aims at the harmonization of standards on as wide a basis as possible, encouraging all standardizing bodies to play as full a part as resources allow in the preparation of international standards by the relevant international bodies, including the ISO and IEC. In the interest of transparency, the Code requires that standardizing bodies that have accepted its terms notify this fact to the joint ISO/IEC Information Centre located at the ISO Central Secretariat in Geneva, either directly or through the relevant national/international member of ISONET. At least once every six months, standardizing bodies must publish their work programmes and also notify the existence of their work programmes to the ISO/IEC Information Centre. Other important provisions relate to the preparation, adoption and application of standards. The present Directory lists all standardizing bodies that had notified acceptance of the WTO TBT Code of Good Practice for the Preparation, Adoption and Application of Standards by 31 August 2007. The Directory also contains the addresses of these standardizing bodies and information related to the availability of their work programmes. 1 How to use this Directory Each entry in the WTO
