The Mexico-EU FTA
The Mexico-EU FTA is part of a broader Global Agreement (Economic Partnership, Political Coordination and Cooperation Agreement).
The trade aspects of the Global Agreement were adopted through two decision of the EU-Mexico Joint Council: The Decision 2/2000 known as the FTA in goods effective
since July 1, 2000, and The Decision 2/2001 called the FTA in Services effective
since March 1, 2001.
3
The Mexico-EU FTA. Decision 2/2000
The Mexico-EU FTA provides that by 2007, around 96 per cent of bilateral trade will be duty free.
The bulk of tariff dismantling for industrial products will be completed by January 1, 2007.
Specific packages were agreed for products considered sensitive such as textiles.
4
The Mexico – EU FTA acknowledges differences in levels of development:
Mexico received asymmetric treatment: the EU completely eliminated its import duties in 2003, while Mexico will do it in 2007.
Elimination of all the prohibitions and quantitative restrictions (e.g. import or export permits), but retention of the right to adopt measures to protect the life of humans, animals, plants of the public moral.
