Montenegro joins WTO

Montenegro joins WTO

On 29 April, Montenegro became the 154th country to join the World Trade Organization (WTO) after the protocol signed on 17 December entered into power.

WTO membership will certainly send a positive signal to foreign investors, cementing Montenegro as a place where rules and practices of international trade and commercial law are respected.

Some 97% of global trade in goods and services takes place within the framework of WTO and Montenegro applied for membership in 2004, while it was still a member of the state union of Serbia and Montenegro.
