SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Dialogue was established by a Letter of
Intent between the U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) and the
Brazilian Ministry of Development, Industry and Foreign Trade (MDIC) on
June 6, 2006, which was intended to guide commercial cooperation
between the two Ministries. The Dialogue is the mechanism through which
Commerce and MDIC work together to prevent, reduce and remove non-
tariff barriers to trade in order to foster increased bilateral trade
and investment. The Dialogue does this through a working group
structure and organizes regular information exchanges between technical
experts.
Following the 21st Plenary of the U.S.-Brazil Commercial Dialogue
in November 2023, Commerce and MDIC issued a Joint Statement which
noted the Dialogue maintains its overarching intention to:
<bullet> Support the implementation of the U.S.-Brazil Protocol on
Trade Rules and Transparency;
<bullet> Foster an environment for ongoing and future cooperation;
<bullet> Support both countries' efforts to enhance resilient
supply chains; and
<bullet> Remain engaged with the private sector and other
stakeholders.
Currently the Dialogue is made up of working groups which address
topics including but not limited to:
<bullet> Good regulatory practices;
<bullet> Standards, metrology and conformity assessment;
<bullet> Trade in the digital economy;
<bullet> Customs and trade facilitation;
<bullet> Trade and sustainable development.
Commerce will use the information gathered in this request for
comment to develop proposed topics for the Dialogue agenda.
