資訊科技產品貿易擴大部長宣言
2015 年 12 月 16 日於奈洛比
1. 吾等部長代表下列世界貿易組織(WTO)會員:
阿爾巴尼亞、澳洲、加拿大、中國大陸、哥倫比亞、哥斯大黎加、歐盟、
瓜地馬拉、香港、冰島、以色列、日本、韓國、馬來西亞、模里西斯、蒙 地內哥羅、紐西蘭、挪威、菲律賓、新加坡、瑞士1、臺澎金馬個別關稅 領域、泰國、美國。
(下稱「參與成員」)特此回溯及支持「擴大資訊科技產品貿易宣言」2 (下 稱「宣言」),依宣言第 9 段開放其他會員加入,並如宣言所明文,宣告 以下結論。
2. 參 與 成 員 同 意 宣 言 第 5 段 所 述 檢 視 程 序 之 成 果 , 此 成 果 反 映 於 G/MA/W/117 3文件之關稅減讓表中,前述減讓表係由各參與成員提交,並 在共識決之基礎上進行檢視及核可。
3. 參與成員認知到,依據宣言第 7 段所規定之條件,經核可之關稅減讓 表已達宣言所涵蓋產品之世界貿易總額約 90%,故各參與成員將以完成國 內程序為前提,依宣言第 3、6 段及經核可之關稅減讓表實施降稅承諾。
為臻明確,其國內程序得包含接受國際義務之必要程序。成員曾討論實行 宣言第 3 段及第 6 段後,就關鍵多數而言考量未來貿易量變動之可能性。
成員並同意倘該情事發生,在不影響研商結果之情況下,應尋覓適當時機 研商此議題。
4. 參與成員回溯宣言第 9 段,持續歡迎任何非宣言成員之 WTO 會員通 知 WTO 秘書長其接受宣言承諾,並成為宣言之成員。

茲聲明如下:
1. 在 1994 年關稅暨貿易總協定(“GATT 1994”)第二條第一項(b)款之規範 下,每個成員將受拘束,並依據後述安排,取消下列兩款產品範圍之關稅 及其他任何進出口稅捐:
(a) 依據 2007 年版調和關稅(“HS”)之貨品分類,列入本宣言附件 A 之所 有稅目(sub-headings);及
(b) 不論是否屬於附件 A 之產品,其他被明列於附件 B 之所有產品。
降稅期程
2. 成員原則上將自 2016 年開始,以 3 年降稅期程,將關稅分 4 次平均 降幅,於 2019 年完成關稅調降;除非經其他成員在考量到延長降稅期程 之必要性,另行同意延長。調降之稅率應保留至小數點後第一位。各成員
1 代表瑞士與列支敦士登關稅同盟。
應將每一產品降稅期程納入其 GATT 1994 之關稅減讓表(“Schedule of Concessions”)。
執行
3. 除非經其他成員同意,並在完成國內程序之相關要求下,各成員應依 下列規定,取消列於附件內之產品關稅及其他進出口稅捐:
(a) 等距調降關稅,最遲不晚於 2016 年 7 月 1 日調降第一次關稅,不晚 於 2017 年 7 月 1 日調降第二次關稅,不晚於 2018 年 7 月 1 日調降第 三次關稅,不晚於 2019 年 7 月 1 日完成所有關稅之調降。
(b) 應於 2016 年 7 月 1 日以前取消 GATT 1994 第二條第一項(b)款所定義 關稅以外之其他進出口稅捐。
加速執行
4. 例如針對關稅稅率較低之產品,成員鼓勵自主性立即取消關稅,或在 前述第 3 條所定降稅期程之前加速執行降稅。
納入關稅減讓表之時間表
5. 各成員應盡快且最遲不晚於 2015 年 10 月 30 日向其他成員提供一份 減讓表草案,包括(a)如何在減讓表內呈現適切的關稅待遇、(b)附件 B 所 明列之產品相關的詳細關稅稅目,並以前註方式說明這些產品不論列於哪 個稅目均應享有免關稅待遇。每一份減讓表草案均應交由其他成員,依談 判期間所提之關切,以共識決為基礎,進行檢視與核可。此一檢視程序,
最遲應於 2015 年 12 月 4 日完成。
6. 任一成員之減讓表草案經完成檢視程序後,該成員應於完成其國內程 序後,依 1980 年 3 月 26 日通過之「關稅減讓表之修改及改正程序決議 (BISD 27S/25)」,提交其核可關稅減讓表,作為修改該成員之 GATT 1994 關稅減讓表。
7. 在共識決之基礎上,當上述經完成檢視及核可之減讓表草案,累計貿 易比例達到本宣言涵蓋產品之世界貿易總額約 90%時2,每一個完成減讓 表之成員即應執行本宣言第 3 段及第 6 段規定。
關稅減讓表草案之格式
8. 針對列入附件之產品,為執行其約束及取消關稅與其他進出口稅捐,
每一個修改其關稅減讓表之成員,應:
2 由 WTO 秘書處依據最新可獲數據進行計算並提供給成員。
(a)
針對附件 A 所列 HS 2007 之稅目,適時在國內的海關進口稅則項 下,增列關稅減讓表的子項(sub-divisions)。
(b) 針對附件 B 所明定之產品,於其關稅減讓表之中另以附錄方式,列 出所有產品相關之 HS 2007 6 位碼稅目,或是在國內海關進口稅則 之關稅款項。
接受
9. 本宣言開放給所有 WTO 會員接受,此接受應以書面形式通知 WTO 秘書長俾轉知所有成員。
非關稅障礙
10. 成員同意加強資訊科技產業的非關稅障礙之談判;爰支持一個有關非
關稅障礙更新版工作方案之發展。
最終考量
11. 至少在世界關務組織定期修改 HS 稅項分類的 1 年之前,且不遲於
2018 年 1 月,成員應定期會晤並檢視附件產品清單,並依據資訊科技的發 展、實施關稅減讓的經驗,或是 HS 稅項的改變,以考量產品清單是否應 更新以涵蓋更多產品。
12. 成員認許本項談判結果所涉及之減讓應納入杜哈發展議程架構下正進 行中的非農產品市場進入之談判。

192 Multi-component integrated circuits (MCOs): a combination of one or more monolithic, hybrid, or multi-chip integrated circuits with at least one of the following components: silicon-based sensors, actuators, oscillators, resonators or combinations thereof, or components performing the functions of articles classifiable under heading 8532, 8533, 8541, or inductors classifiable under heading 8504, formed to all intents and purposes indivisibly into a single body like an integrated circuit, as a
component of a kind used for assembly onto a printed circuit board (PCB) or other carrier, through the connecting of pins, leads, balls, lands, bumps, or pads.
For the purpose of this definition the following expressions mean:
1. "Components" may be discrete, manufactured independently then assembled onto the rest of the MCO, or integrated into other components.
2. "Silicon based" means built on a silicon substrate, or made of silicon materials, or manufactured onto integrated circuit die.
(a). "Silicon based sensors" consist of microelectronic or mechanical structures that are created in the mass or on the surface of a semiconductor and that have the function of detecting physical or chemical quantities and transducing these into electric signals, caused by resulting variations in electric properties or displacement of a mechanical structure.
"Physical or chemical quantities" relates to real world phenomena, such as pressure, acoustic waves, acceleration, vibration, movement, orientation, strain, magnetic field strength, electric field strength, light, radioactivity, humidity, flow, chemicals concentration, etc.
3(b). "Silicon based actuators" consist of microelectronic and mechanical structures that are created in the mass or on the surface of a semiconductor and that have the function of converting electrical signals into physical movement.
3(c). "Silicon based resonators" are components that consist of microelectronic or mechanical structures that are created in the mass or on the surface of a semiconductor and have the function of generating a mechanical or electrical oscillation of a predefined frequency that depends on the physical geometry of these structures in response to an external input.
3(d). "Silicon based oscillators" are active components that consist of microelectronic or mechanical structures that are created in the mass or on the surface of a semiconductor and that have the function of generating a mechanical or electrical oscillation of a predefined frequency that depends on the physical geometry of these structures.

194 Touch-Sensitive Data Input Devices (so-called touch screens) without display capabilities, for incorporation into apparatus having a display, which function by detecting the presence and location of a touch within the display area. The sensing of touch may be obtained by means of resistance, electrostatic capacity, acoustic pulse recognition, infra-red lights, or other touch-sensitive technology 195 Ink cartridges (with or without an integrated print head) for insertion into apparatus of HS
subheadings 844331, 844332 or 844339, and incorporating mechanical or electrical components;

** The tariff elimination for printed matter shall only affect the rights and obligations with respect to trade in goods, that is, it shall not affect market access other than tariffs of the participants. Nothing in the ITA expansion agreement shall prevent an ITA member from regulating the content of such goods, including Internet content, among other things. Nothing in the ITA expansion agreement shall affect a member's market access rights and obligations on trade in services or prevent a member from regulating its services market.
