pakistan: Pakistan likely to lose GSP Plus status

In 2020, 28 per cent of Pakistan's total exports to the EU were duty-free thanks to its GSP Plus status, and 78 per cent of these exports went to the EU. For the upcoming round, the EU has tightened the requirements for the GSP Plus programme, which grants duty-free access to more than 66 per cent of goods. To qualify for the GSP Plus programme, the nations will now need to submit a plan of action to implement more than 30 conventions.
