Afghanistan has signed an agreement on trade with the United States which would open up the road for the country’s entry into World Trade Organization enabling it to resolve transit and trade problems Afghan traders face with officials of neighboring countries, especially on the Pakistan and Iran borders; a significant step forward for Afghanistan. Furthermore, by joining the international community, Afghan traders will have easier access to international markets by gaining access to modern transit and commerce facilities. Did you know that 75% of World Trade Organization members are developing countries and membership allows them access to developed markets at the lower tariff rate? Currently a total of 160 countries, including India, Pakistan, and Tajikistan are members of the organization.

Will membership help Afghanistan attract more lucrative investments into the country?
