Title: Current international trade rules relevant to telecommunications services
Abstract: This paper describes current WTO rules concerning telecommunications services. It includes an explanation of the structure of the GATS, its Annex on Telecommunications, and the Agreement on Basic Telecommunication Services. As discussed in the previous chapter, the latter reflects the commitments of sixty-nine countries that agreed to open their markets to foreign basic telecommunication services and to foreign suppliers of these services. It also contains additional rules which are linked to these commitments and are assembled under the so-called ‘Reference Paper’.
