TPP

NAFTA

TPP free up trade of some

certain goods and products like
diary, medicine etc.

But NAFTA has no such

provision. Rather it eliminates
tariffs.

Products imported are treated

as their country of origin.

Under NAFTA no country can

treat imported goods as their
country of origin.

TPP imposes shorter patent for

certain complex drugs.

NAFTA has no such provision

regarding patent.
