This indicator contains dyadic data for all links in the trade of goods that were effectuated under a free trade agreement in a given year. The time period ranges from 1949 to 2019.

The list contains the country name and COW code of the sender and receiver that engage in free trade, the year and the value 1 for an existing free trade agreement in this year. Please note that there are no actual sender and receivers because the links are undirected.


Coding rules

To meet the WeSIS coding rules, bilateral FTAs with a signatory country that was not allocated a cow country code (Correlates of War Project 2016) or that was otherwise not included in the WeSIS country list, were in a first step deleted from the dataset. This includes the following FTAs:

  • Faroe Islands – Norway
  • Faroe Islands – Switzerland
  • Faroe Islands – Iceland
  • Hong Kong, China – China
  • Macao, China – China
  • Hong Kong, China - New Zealand
  • Palestinian Authority - Turkey

EU and EFTA trade agreements with entities lacking a COW country code were deleted:

  • EU - Overseas Countries and Territories (OCT)
  • EU - Faroe Islands
  • EU - Palestinian Authority
  • EFTA - Palestinian Authority
  • EFTA - Hong Kong, China

Other multilateral FTAs were amended:

  • Pan-Arab Free Trade Area (PAFTA): Removed Palestinian Authority
  • Pacific Island Countries Trade Agreement (PICTA): Removed Cook Islands and Niue
  • Caribbean Community and Common Market (CARICOM): Removed Montserrat
  • South Pacific Regional Trade and Economic Cooperation Agreement (SPARTECA): Removed Cook Islands and Niue

Further amendments to the WTO data include:

  • Borneo Free Trade Agreement: deleted because signatory countries were not listed in the WTO database

For each FTA a dyadic list of all signatory countries was created, meaning that all signatory entities were paired with all other signatory entities. Doubles were then deleted.
