Submit a notification

SPS notifications can be submitted online through the online submission module in the ePing SPS&TBT Platform. This module is password-protected, and is accessible with the single sign-on credentials. This improved functionality allows Members to fill in all types of notification templates in any of the three WTO working languages. While notifications can be filled in by a number of different national organisms, the SPS National Notification Authority (NNA) has exclusive rights to officially submit the notifications to the WTO. The SPS NSS allows for a faster and more accurate submission of the notification and a more efficient processing and distribution to Members. 

Notifications can be submitted to CRN as attachments to email. While doing so, it is important that Members are aware of the following points:

Notifications must be submitted in Word format and attachments to notifications in PDF format.

Use the available templates for regular and emergency notifications, as well as addenda and corrigenda and other types of notifications.

Notifications should be sent to: CRN@wto.org with spsnotifications@wto.org in copy.

All notifications on paper should be addressed as follows:

 

World Trade Organization (WTO)

Attention: Administrator, Central Registry of Notifications (CRN)

Centre William Rappard

154 rue de Lausanne

CH-1211 GENEVA 2 Switzerland

 

Please do not address notifications to individual Divisions, Committees, Directors or the Registry of the WTO.
