  • Simplification of Trade Documentation Using International Standards
    Rev 3 January 2011 Trust Fund for Trade Facilitation Negotiations1 Technical Note 13 Simplification of trade documentation using international standards Background Documents are the support to collect information and data. Document requirements in international trade serve different purposes. These may include for example documents required as part of governmental procedures, supply chain management and payment requirements. Managing the various documentary requirements becomes problematic as the information need to be submitted to different agencies in different countries and languages, on difference forms, and with various supportive documents attached to them. National and international businesses, traders and transport operators have to cope with numerous documents and forms (sometimes up to 40 originals), often containing redundant and repetitive data and information (200 data elements on average). The World Bank Doing Business Study www.doingbusiness.org provides country-specific data on document requirements for export operations, informing of opportunity costs induced by trade document processing. The data shows that in many developing countries the costs for document preparation are the biggest cost factor in the export process. For example, Indian exporters experienced costs of $350 for document preparation, $120 for Customs clearance, $150 for port and terminal handling and $200 for inland transport. The costs for document preparation in a country with highly simplified and automated processes such as Germany were reported at $85 per shipment. The data indicates that for developing countries and transition economies document simplification and automation is an important instrument to increase competitiveness at competitively low investment costs. Simplification of trade documents, therefore aims at reducing document and data requirements and aligning them to international standards.

  • Paper Sizes Teacher Notes Activity Description
    Paper sizes Teacher notes Activity description Pupils investigate paper sizes in the A and B international series. They can explore the relationships within each series and between the series. If pupils access information on paper sizes on the web, the focus of their work will need to be on interpreting and explaining their research. Suitability Pupils working at all levels; individuals or pairs Time 1 to 2 hours AMP resources Pupil stimulus Equipment 1 sheet of each of A3, A4, A5, B5 and B6 paper, labelled appropriately. Rulers Key mathematical language Dimension, length, width, area, measurement, centimetre, millimetre, double, half, ratio, proportion, scaling, surd, series, similar, congruent, upper bound, lower bound Key processes Representing Identifying the mathematics involved in the task and developing appropriate representations. Analysing Working systematically; identifying patterns; beginning to make generalisations. Interpreting and evaluating Considering the findings to form convincing arguments. Communicating and reflecting Explaining the approach taken and the outcomes achieved at each stage of the work. Nuffield Applying Mathematical Processes (AMP) Investigation ‘Paper sizes’ Teacher notes page 1 of 9 Supported by the Clothworkers’ Foundation © Nuffield Foundation 2010 Teacher guidance Pupils may have relevant prior knowledge, so the activity should start with a class discussion of paper sizes. Which ones are pupils familiar with? What are they used for, and why? If printing templates to create any of the sheets, please take care that the paper sizes print accurately. Consider the following starter: provide paper sizes A3 to A6 inclusive and ask pupils to write what size they think it is. Choose some of the probing questions to display around the room to prompt discussion.
