WTO DOCUMENTS ONLINE
Documents Online provides access to the
official documentation of the World Trade Organization.
The database contains over 140,000 documents in
the three official languages from 1995 onwards and
is updated daily. All WTO documents are posted in
PDF and WORD format. The application provides a
descriptive catalogue record for every document
stored in the archive. It is possible to consult
all of these documents online and also to download
selected documents from the site. |

Documents Online comprises seven different
search interfaces
- Recent documents
provides access to the latest documents
posted.
- Commonly-consulted
offers a selection of searches
which enable the easy retrieval
of regularly requested documents.
- Documents for meetings
displays a list of formal and informal
meetings of WTO bodies and their
associated documents.
- By topic offers
the possibility of searching for
WTO documents by broad subject category.
The current display format of this
section is under review and will
be modified shortly.
- The Notifications
interface allows for the searching
of notification documents by notifying
members and WTO legal requirements,
using the Central Registry of Notifications
database. The Advanced search provides additional search criteria, such as symbol,
requirement topic and classification. Full-text search capabilities for
searching within the document text itself are also available in the Advanced search.
- The Search
module provides advanced searching
capabilities enabling the user to
retrieve all WTO official documents
on the basis of specified criteria,
such as symbol, country, topic,
or full-text search capabilities for searching
within the document text itself.
- The GATT module provides access to the official documents
issued under the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT).
The General Council
decided to make these documents public on 15
May 2006. These have been scanned to create a digital archive.
Currently only the documents belonging to the Uruguay Round of trade
negotiations have been uploaded. This is a work in progress and
more documents will be added progressively.
