ExportNZ Trade & Advocacy Update September 2024

There was little in the media about Trade Minister Hon Todd McClay’s visit to the UAE last week. But it seems to have been successful. New Zealand negotiators are apparently in the UAE in the final stages of the negotiation of the FTA this week. There is talk of a high-level visit to New Zealand from the UAE next week. This all suggests that we might be on the verge of finalising another FTA. Australia has also been negotiating with the UAE, and earlier this week, it announced that both parties had reached an agreement that would eliminate 99% of tariffs on Australian goods being imported into the UAE.
