This report was prepared by the OECD Trade and Agriculture Directorate (Silvia Sorescu and Sebastian Weber, Trade Policy Division). It draws on valuable inputs and close collaboration from the ASEAN Trade Facilitation Division within the ASEAN Market Integration Directorate (Cuong Ba Tran and Garlan Irawan), whose contributions have been incorporated throughout the analysis. Max Bulakovskiy, John Drummond, Karin Gourdon and Julia Nielson (all OECD) provided insightful comments and suggestions. The report also benefited from discussions and feedback in the October 2025 OECD Working Party of the Trade Committee (WPTC) and incorporates ASEAN Member States comments following discussions in the ASEAN Trade Facilitation Joint Consultative Committee (ATF-JCC) (at its 33rd meeting in October 2025 and its 34th meeting in January 2026). Laëtitia Christophe, Hilary Gaboriau, and Yoshie Sasabe Jeannelle prepared the document for publication.
