Study on the potential impacts of a future EU-Singapore Digital Trade Agreement

25.07.2024 Press and information team of the Delegation to SINGAPORE

The new EU-Singapore Digital Trade Agreement (EUSDTA) builds on several existing trade arrangements between the EU and Singapore, including a bilateral free trade agreement, the investment protection agreement, which is pending ratification, and a negotiated set of digital trade principles.

Negotiations for the EUSDTA have been taking place in the context of a growing web of digital commitments, for both Singapore and the EU.

This study was conducted during the negotiations. It surveys the original negotiating landscape, notes overlaps and gaps between existing and planned elements of digital trade arrangements and aims to provide insights into consequences of likely outcomes for government, business and civil society.
