Notes:
If a Member considers it necessary, it may make its contribution in equal annual instalments during the four years following the entry into force of this Agreement.
The classification of countries listed in this Annex II into Group A, B and C Members was made on the basis of their share of world trade with an upward correction reflecting their per capita income, as indicated in the table below. The share of world trade was determined on the basis of the share of world trade that the WTO used to determine the share of its Members in the expenses of the WTO. The per capita income was based on World Bank statistics. Taking into account these criteria and sources of statistics, the Management Board shall review the classification of Members listed in this Annex at least once every five years and, if necessary, modify the classification to reflect any changes in the share of world trade and/or per capita income of such Members.
Category | World Trade Share | GNP per capita
A | > = 1,5% or | High Income Countries
B | > = 0,15 % and < 1,5% or | Upper Middle Income countries
C | < 0,15%
The provisions of Article 7 of this Agreement and Annex IV to this Agreement shall apply equally to the least developed countries listed in Annex III that have not accepted this Agreement and the least developed countries listed in Annex III that have accepted this Agreement.
States and customs territories listed in Annex II that are not Members of the Centre, may request the support of the Centre in WTO dispute settlement proceedings subject to the fees indicated in Annex IV to this Agreement. Such support will be provided on the condition that no Member of the Centre is involved in the same case or any Member that is involved in the same case authorises the Centres' support to such State or customs territory. All other services shall be provided exclusively to Members and least developed countries.
