Sectoral Classification List (W/120)

Sectoral Classification List (W/120)

The services sectoral classification list (W/120) is a comprehensive list of services sectors and sub-sectors covered under the GATS. It was compiled by the WTO in July 1991 and its purpose was to facilitate the Uruguay Round negotiations, ensuring cross-country comparability and consistency of the commitments undertaken. The 160 sub-sectors are defined as aggregate of the more detailed categories contained in the United Nations provisional Central Product Classification (CPC).

The list is available at the WTO website at: http://tsdb.wto.org/Includes/docs/W120_E.doc
