    THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Voluntary - Public Date: 5/1/2018 GAIN Report Number: AS1812 Australia Post: Canberra Increased Market Access Under the TPP-11 Agreement Report Categories: Trade Policy Monitoring Agriculture in the News Approved By: Rey Santella, Agricultural Counselor Prepared By: Roger Farrell, Agricultural Specialist Report Highlights: Australia is expected to improve its global competitiveness as the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) Agreement is likely to reduce tariffs and provide significant market access in key markets. Australian beef, pork, fruits, wine, and grains are likely to benefit from the preferential treatment and new trade facilitation arrangements provided under CPTPP. Overview The Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP), also known as TPP-11, was signed on March 8, 2018. Members of the agreement include Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, and Vietnam. Overall, the CPTPP will eliminate more than 98 percent of tariffs in the TPP-11 markets, according to the Australian government (see following link: http://dfat.gov.au/trade/agreements/not-yet-in-force/tpp-11/outcomes- documents/Pages/tpp-11-outcomes-at-a-glance.aspx. In 2017, Australia’s agricultural exports to the TPP-11 countries accounted for more than 20 percent of Australia’s total agricultural exports. According to an Australian Parliament assessment, the CPTPP creates valuable new market access opportunities in two TPP-11 markets where Australia does not currently have a free trade agreement (FTA), namely Canada and Mexico.
