De nombreux analystes reportent à présent leur attention sur les mesures non tarifaires (MNT) ou la facilitation des échanges, car les droits de douane nominaux semblent trop faibles pour faire une différence, 5 % étant parfois présenté comme la limite au‑dessous de laquelle une différence de droits nominaux n'a plus d'importance. 1, record 1, French, - droit%20de%20douane%20nominal
