"WTO is GATT plus a lot more. ... It is probably best to be clear from the start that the GATT was two things: (1) an international agreement, and (2) an international organization created later to support the agreement. The text of the agreement could be compared to law, the organization was like parliament and the courts combined in a single body. ... GATT, the international agency, no longer exists. It has now been replaced by the WTO GATT, the agreement, does still exist, but it is no longer the main set of rules for international trade. And it has been updated. ... While GATT no longer exists as an international organization, the GATT agreement lives on. The old text is now called "GATT 1947".

Créée le 1er janvier 1995, l'OMC est le fondement juridique et institutionnel du système de commerce multilatéral. Elle concrétise les principales obligations contractuelles qui déterminent comment les gouvernements doivent formuler et appliquer leurs lois et règlements internes en matière de commerce.

L'OMC, c'est le GATT et bien plus encore. ... Il faut peut-être préciser tout de suite que le GATT était deux choses à la fois : 1) un accord international et 2) une organisation internationale créée par la suite pour administrer l'Accord. On peut comparer le texte de l'Accord à une loi et l'Organisation à un organisme jouant à la fois le rôle d'un parlement et celui d'un tribunal. [...] Le GATT, en tant qu'organisation internationale, n'existe plus. Il est aujourd'hui remplacé par l'OMC. Le GATT, l'accord, existe toujours, mais il n'est plus le principal ensemble de règles régissant le commerce international. Il a également été mis à jour. [...] L'accord qui correspond à ce sigle est toujours en vigueur. L'ancien texte s'appelle aujourd'hui «GATT de 1947».

La OMC, establecida el 1° de enero de 1995, conforma la base jurídica e institucional del sistema multilateral de comercio.

Es necesario aclarar desde el comienzo que el Acuerdo General sobre Aranceles Aduaneros y Comercio (GATT) era dos cosas a la vez: 1) un acuerdo internacional, [y] 2) una organización internacional creada posteriormente para prestar apoyo al acuerdo. El texto del acuerdo podía compararse a un instrumento legislativo y la organización era semejante a un Parlamento y a un poder judicial reunidos en un órgano único.

El GATT, el acuerdo, sigue existiendo, pero ya no es el principal conjunto de normas que regulan el comercio internacional. Además, ha sido actualizado.
