The Commerce Ministry insisted on Saturday the announcement by US President Donald Trump to suspend preferential trade benefits for 231 Thai products under the so-called Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) won’t much affect Thailand’s export to the US.
Effective on Dec 30, the new GSP suspension will result in these products being taxed at a normal rate, not that they will be banned from entry to the US, said Keerati Rushchano, director-general of Department of International Trade Promotion.
