The China-Singapore Free Trade Agreement (CSFTA) was signed on 23 Oct 2008 and will be effective on 1 Jan 2009. Singapore is the first Southeast Asian country to have this preferential trading arrangement with China. The CSFTA complements the existing ASEAN-China Free Trade Agreement (ACFTA) to expand the scope of customs duty savings, services and investment liberalizations, and business travel flexibility between both countries. If you are a manufacturer, exporter, importer, trader, service supplier, investor or frequent business traveler, do not miss this opportunity to discover the benefits in store for you and what you must do and prepare under the free trade agreement to tap on burgeoning China-Singapore economic opportunities!
