📋 Tender Overview
Between the 27th and 30th of April, the IX Negotiating Round of the Free Trade Agreement between MERCOSUR and Canada took place in Brasilia.
Negotiations, which resumed last October, reflect the parties interest in deepening economic and commercial relations, promoting greater productive integration between the economies of MERCOSUR and Canada.
In-person meetings of technical groups were held on trade in goods, services and financial services, rules of origin, intellectual property, sanitary and phytosanitary barriers and trade and sustainable development. There were also hybrid meetings on government procurement, technical barriers to trade and commerce, and labor.
During the round, three chapters of the Agreement moved towards closure. A new round will be held in May, so that the groups can move forward in concluding the negotiations.
