Abstract

The article addresses the problem of identifying non-tariff barriers for businesses at external market, that has become more significant over the last few decades. The analysis of three major approaches to identifying non-tariff barriers –analysis of official reports, online survey and direct interview of exporters – revealsthe advantages of the latter. However, the reliability of data obtained from a survey crucially depends on the solution of various problems including the compilation of barrier list that the survey participants would use to respond. The experience of the existing studies shows that theUNCTAD classification of non– tariff measures is the one most frequently used.Building on the outcome of trial surveys, the authorsfind some disadvantages of applying this classification intactas this may distort the survey results. To solve this problem, the authors propose criteria for a barrier list and, finally, propose a modified list of barriers for company and enterprise surveys based on the UNCTAD classification.Â
