Summary
Bilateral, regional and multilateral trade agreements, such as CHAFTA and RCEP, have afforded better access into Greater China region with removals of prohibitive tariffs. Opportunities exist to reinforce Australian credentials and solidify our position as trusted and credible trade partners, as well as to progress priority non-tariff barrier challenges such as halal certification, labelling and listing requirements.

- provided briefings and facilitated industry roundtables and delegations to support greater trade engagement and further market reforms
