How
The key functions of International Negotiation are fulfilled through the fol-
lowing process

1) MOC negotiates on FTA Agreement with DTN (Department of Trade
Negotiation) under MOC of Thailand;
2) SAMR signs and executes FTA;
3) GACC negotiates with ACFS (National Bureau of Agricultural
Commodity Food Standards (ACFS) under MOAC of Thailand on
market access and SPS requirement leading to related protocols.

Observation

1) Thai fruits enjoy 0% tariff under the CAFTA (China ASEAN Free Trade
Area);
2) GACC has approved market access for 22 Thai fruits (fresh/chilled/
frozen) in China (Table 1.2). Other fruits are under negotiation through
JTC-SPS (Joint Trade Committee-Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures);
3) GACC also reached agreements with ACFS in protocols for exchanging
GAP and GMP information on Thai selected fruits, and protocols on
land transportation through third country, including specified routes
and border checkpoints. (Table 2.12);
4) More border checkpoints for Thai fruits by land transportation were
opened to deal with the problems of traffic jam during the Covid-19
pandemic; due to effective communication between Thailand and
China.
