<p>My Department supports the renewal of the WTO e-commerce moratorium. We are working
with WTO Members and interested stakeholders to deliver this outcome at the 13<sup>th</sup>
WTO Ministerial Conference. The moratorium underpins global digital trade and provides
certainty that electronic transmissions will not be subject to customs duties. My
Department is clear that we support a permanent prohibition of such duties, as outlined
in our Digital Trade Objectives and the G7 Digital Trade Principles developed under
the 2021 UK Presidency.</p><p>My Department is also committed to agreeing rules against
customs duties on electronic transmissions in the UK’s bilateral trade agreements.</p>
