Geneva-based International Trade Centre (ITC) and the Government of Sri Lanka have jointly produced the first comprehensive manual for Sri Lankan exporters to export under the European Union Generalized System of Preferences Plus (EU GSP+) scheme. The EU-funded ‘EU GSP+ Business Guide for Sri Lankan Exporters’ was released last week on the ITC website.

The information in the manual was collected in June this year, according to Sri Lankan media reports. It highlights the GSP Regulation enumerating 27 conventions, including the core human and labour rights conventions of the International Labour Organisation (ILO).

It explains relevant rules of origin applicable to apparel under GSP+, relevant institutions in the EU and additional resources like web portals, where Lankan exporters can obtain more information. (DS)
