EL SALVADOR: Customs Authority Enables Border Measures through Administrative Regulations

Finally, after several years of waiting, the Salvadoran Customs authority has instated the application of Border Measures in the country, by enacting Administrative Regulation No. DACG No. DGA 007-2012 in force since last June 15, 2012.

Such regulation gives life to the commitment acquired in Sections 51 through 60 of the TRIPS Agreement, and its effectiveness is yet to be tried in the real world.
