II. Impact
1. On general business in VN:
The first evidence on the importance of NTMs is affectedness The affectedness is calculated as
the share of firms facing burdensome NTMs when trading goods. Up to half of the firms,
depending on their size are affected by NTMs. Affectedness is the largest (57%) for smaller
companies with fewer than five employees. In contrast, only 45% of the largest companies of our
sample, with more than 1,000 employees, declare being affected. This is points to the fact that a
large proportion of the distribution of firms is affected.
NTMs are an important issue for developing countries exporters. However, smaller firms with
less capability to overcome fixed or variable costs of exporting are more impacted, while the
positive relationship between exporters size and productivity is a well-documented stylized fact.
Part of what is observed in the survey is the combination of actual barriers and insufficient
productivity of exporters. Nonetheless, the negative correlation between companies size and
affectedness reverses above a certain threshold (250 employees). Figure 2 shows that companies
size influences the affectedness in two ways: the smaller the company, the less capability to
comply with NTMs; the bigger the company, the more products-markets that could encounter at
least one obstructive NTM.
The second most impacted sector is processed food, with 55% of exporters declaring being
affected. Conversely, in consumer electronics, NTMs play a limited role; NTM-related trade
obstacles affect only 15% of exporters. The type of products is only one explanation, as technical
barriers to trade (TBTs) are very present. Another explanation could be the position of developing
countries exporters in the different value chains. While exporters of agricultural goods are
mainly active at earlier stages of the production with a high and diffuse number of competitors,
exporters of manufactured goods usually depend on the intensive use of high-quality (imported)
inputs and belong to more closed and organized trade relationships with higher levels of trust. A
similar explanation may pertain to electronic components, with a 29%
affectedness rate.
The NTM survey results reveal that exporter in agri food sector are more affected than exporters
in the manufacturing sector. This is consistent with the fact that countries often regulate agri-food
products more vigilantly for reasons of consumer and environmental protection.
2. On Exporting country:
Thailand appy one single channel import. Therefore, all goods imported into Thailand must be
reported to the Customs department, using E- custom system.
