Transparency: A World Trade Organization
principle stipulating that a country’s policies and regulations affecting
foreign trade should be clearly communicated to its trading partners. For
example, out of recognition that sanitary and phytosanitary measures may
(sometimes deliberately) be unclear, arbitrary, or capricious, recent
international trading agreements have provisions calling on countries to notify
others, in advance, about any measures that could affect trade, to fully explain
them, and to provide a means for commenting on them.
