    Philippine-European Union Free Trade Deal Set to Boost Exports to $8.3 Billion

    October 3, 2024

    The Philippines is set to achieve a major increase in exports to the European Union as progress continues on a potential Free Trade Agreement between the two regions. A recent study from the Philippines suggests this agreement could elevate exports to the European Union to an impressive $8.3 billion, opening new doors for economic growth.

     

    Trade and Industry Undersecretary Allan Gepty highlighted the importance of completing this trade deal by 2027. With the Philippines expected to reach upper middle-income status next year, finalizing the agreement is key to ensuring continued preferential access to the European market. The Free Trade Agreement is seen as a vital step in maintaining the Philippines’ competitive edge, as it aims to eliminate tariffs on a wide range of products, including agricultural goods, processed foods, and industrial items.

     

    By enhancing access to European markets, this agreement would not only strengthen trade relations but also create a host of new opportunities for Philippine exporters. In addition to the European Union deal, the Philippines is actively negotiating similar agreements with other global partners. Ongoing talks with the United Arab Emirates are focused on securing favorable terms for key products, further boosting the country’s export potential.

     

    These strategic trade initiatives are expected to drive sustainable growth, enhance global trade ties, and position the Philippines as a strong player in the international marketplace.
