HOW TO USE SIMPLER TRADE DOCUMENTS

A brochure entitled "How to Use Simpler Trade Documents" has

been released by the Hong Kong Working Party on Simpler Trade Documents. This brochure is being published by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council for the Working Party.

The brochure attempts to bring all concerned as up to date

as possible on the forms which are now available to Hong Kong exporters

and others to enable them to mechanise their paper work.

It includes specimens of various documents which have been aligned

to the Hong Kong Standard Master Document. The work of the ad hoc Working Party on Simpler Trade Documents has now been taken over by the Hong

Kong Trade Facilitation Committee.

Copies of the brochure, at $2.00 each, can be obtained from

the Government Publications Centre, Star Ferry Concourse, Hong Kong

or through the Chinese Manufacturers' Association; the Federation of

Hong Kong Industries; the Hong Kong Exporters' Association; the Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce; the Indian Chamber of Commerce, and the Marine Insurance Association of Hong Kong.
