Along with the standard procedures set up for import/export businesses, Western companies （and most others, as well） must deal with tariffs¹, unless the trade is between members of economic blocks such as NAFTA （North America）, EEC（Europe）, etc. The global organization dealing² with international trade （i.e. import/export） is the WTO.

　　根据进出口业务的标准程序，西方公司（其他公司也是）必然要处理关税问题，除非是同一经济体成员之间的贸易，如NAFTA（北美自由贸易区），EEC（欧盟）等。处理全球国际贸易（进口、出口）的世界组织是WTO（世界贸易组织）。
