Under the Asia-Pacific Trade Agreement or APTA, Bangladesh would get two types of tariff facilities- general import tax waiver and facilities for the Least Developed Countries. The decision came after a meeting among the commerce ministries of seven member countries. Now Bangladesh would get tax waiver for 10677 products.
The APTA, established in 1975, consisted of seven countries are Bangladesh, India, China, South Korea, Sri Lanka, Laos and Mongolia. But earlier it was knows as Bangkok Agreement and renamed as APTA in 2005.
Its main aim is to promote economic development by taking measures of mutual beneficial trade liberalization. It would contribute to the trade expansion among the countries and economic integration. APTA agreement is very potential and it could expand to other sub-regions like Central Asia and the Pacific.
