It will remove the vast majority of customs duties that cost EU companies exporting to Japan &euro;1 billion a year. EU exports to Japan could increase by over one third. &ldquo;It contains obligations to maintain open and non-discriminatory access to international maritime services such as transport and auxiliary services, as well as access to ports and port services,&rdquo; Dorsman reminded.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Shipping needs global trade to exist and global trade cannot exist without an efficient shipping industry. Around 90\\% of world trade in goods is carried by the international shipping industry and European shipowners control 40\\% of the world&rsquo;s merchant fleet and operate shipping services all over the world,&rdquo; he concluded.<\/p>\n<p>European Shipowners look forward to the Council&rsquo;s approval of the agreements. Once approved by the Council, they will be sent to the European Parliament, aiming for the entry into force before the end of the current mandate of the European Commission in 2019. The investment protection agreement with Singapore will follow its ratification procedure also at Member State level.<\/p>\n<p>ecsa.eu<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The European Commission today presented trade agreements with Japan and Singapore to the Council to  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":128714,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[273],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-128716","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-maritimes-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
