China WTO Compliance Report from USTR

Posted

Monday the Office of the United States Trade Representative released its 2024 Report to Congress on China’s WTO Compliance, an assessment of the People’s Republic of China’s (PRC’s) membership in the World Trade Organization.


“China continues to represent the biggest challenge to the international trading system. After 23 years of membership in the World Trade Organization, China still embraces a state-directed, non-market approach to the economy and trade, which runs counter to the norms and principles embodied in the WTO,” said Ambassador Katherine Tai.

“This report details the breadth and scale of the constantly evolving non-market policies and practices that China deploys in pursuit of its anticompetitive objectives as well as the serious harm that those non-market policies and practices cause to workers, businesses, and industries in the United States and around the world. It is imperative that the members of the international trading community continue to work together to defend our shared interests against these many harmful policies and practices.”

The 2024 Report to Congress on China’s WTO Compliance is the 22nd report prepared pursuant to the U.S.-China Relations Act of 2000  which requires the United States Trade Representative to report annually to Congress on compliance by the People’s Republic of China with commitments made in connection with its accession to the World Trade Organization, including both multilateral commitments and any bilateral commitments made to the United States.

The report covers calendar year 2024. It also incorporates the findings of the Overseas Compliance Program.
