EPA Helpdesk

A free trade agreement between the EU and Japan (EU-Japan EPA) entered into force in 2019 scrapping most of the import duty tariffs.

The EU-Japan Centre for Industrial Cooperation EPA Helpdesk provides up-to-date information and answers EPA-related queries. It organises webinars and publishes information packs, each of them composed of a factsheet and practical guide covering specific topics or sectors of the Economic Partnership Agreement.

To get access to the information packs, please click here.

For official information about the agreement, please visit the European Commission website.
