전자적 전송물의 무관세 모라토리움 기류 변화와 우리나라의 대응방안에 관한 소고

Purpose : The purpose of this study is to suggest countermeasures from a trade policy perspective regarding the permanent or abolition of the tariff-free moratorium on electronic transmissions, based on the current trends in WTO discussions on the tariff-free moratorium and the pros and cons of the permanentization of the tariff-free moratorium. Research design, data, methodology : This study first examined the current WTO discussions on tariff-free moratoriums and the pros and cons of making tariff-free moratoriums permanent. It then presented trade policy responses to the abolition of moratoriums that were not addressed in previous studies. Results : It is highly likely that the moratorium on electronic transmissions will be abolished in the future, and it can be confirmed that there are no countermeasures in terms of trade policy if the moratorium is abolished. Conclusions : There is ongoing international debate over the current tariff-free moratorium on electronic transmissions, and it is necessary to prepare countermeasures in terms of trade policy in the event that the moratorium is abolished in the future.
