Under the summary of the agreement section you can read about the following:

•National Treatment and Market Access for Goods
•Textiles and Apparel
•Rules of Origin and Origin Procedures
•Customs Administration and Trade Facilitation
•Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures
•Technical Barriers to Trade
•Trade Remedies
•Investment
•Cross-Border Trade in Services
•Financial Services
•Temporary Entry for Business Persons
•Telecommunications
•Electronic Commerce
•Government Procurement
•Competition Policy
•State-Owned Enterprises and Designated Monopolies
•Intellectual Property
•Labour
•Environment
•Development
•Competitiveness and Business Facilitation
•Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises
