The Analysis of General Principles of International Customs Law-With Reference to Cross-Strait Customs Cooperation Agreement / 國際關稅法一般原則之分析-以海峽兩岸關稅合作協定為例

碩士 / 東吳大學 / 法律學系 / 102 / International trade is the most common economic form of modern nations and almost all countries take part of it. Due to its impact on economy, nations often implement different customs laws and policies to achieve their ultimate economic goals. Accordingly, these policies often result in various types of trade barriers, which in return greatly distort global trade as a whole. Similarly, other forms of non-tariff barriers also impede the normal trading activities.
Thus, a sound international customs system is considered essential by the international community, which constituted the very motive to establish the World Trade Organization. Through WTO customs framework, we expect to remove the trade barriers so that the trading costs can be minimized. All efforts on tariff concession of WTO were all for one very purpose-paving way for free trade. Apart from the various agreements of WTO, other international and regional trade agreements related to customs have also been enacted by different international economic organizations.
As for Taiwan, in view of the impediment to developing normal trade with China on account of cross-strait political disagreement and conflicts of regulations, Taiwan had endeavored to normalize the mutual economic relations, particularly on tariff concession over the past few years. A big breakthrough was achieved in 2010 and the birth of an agreement called ECFA was signed by both sides. The normalization of economy between Taiwan and China is expected to facilitate the mutual trading activities. All customs related issues such as customs procedures and facilitations and negotiation of tariff rates and many others can all be regulated under the agreement and more benefits are anticipated by both sides.
