Technical Barriers To Trade Influence And Countermeasures Of China's Toy Exports

Technical barriers to Trade has become the most popular trade protection policy instrument in the world because of the legality in name and concealment in method.China, as the developing country, is very easy to be suffered from the TBT under the rigorous situation that backwardness in technology level on test and system building up on Toy safety technology regulation. We are absence of own big brand because of the main processing trade method and shipping tremendous quantity but the limited margin of profit in the export of the Toy products.These years, developed country in the world set up the more and more complicated regulations and standards on children's products in the purpose of protecting the Children's health and safety as well as the benefit of the consumer on the surface through their advanced testing equipment. However, they also can use those international regulations and standards to protect their domestic toy industry and maintain their monopoly advantage in competition by keeping the leading position on standards creation.Through the research about the TBTs which Chinese toy products have been suffering from in the international business these years, it's hard for us to find out any TBT was designed only for hindering the specific toy products exported from China which means there doesn't exist a sort of standards that is a only for the trade barrier, more or less, it's named by the reason of justifiability. However, in order to comply with those Standards, Toy enterprises in China have to pay additional costs and then increase the price and then lose their competition in the word and make the toy industries in those developed country get protected.Although TBT leads huge impact, barrier and economic loss to the export of Chinese Toy products, in the long view, TBT will encourage the Chinese toy enterprise to enhance their capability of Competitiveness and then lift the volume of export. In front of the distance between Developed country and us about the technology level and capability on standards setting up, we have no choice but envisaging and chasing.In order to span those TBTs, government must take the responsibility of the lead ship, professional associations must take the responsibility of coordination andenterprise must take the positive action as the host.
