Concept information

Preferred term

most favoured nation status  

Definition(s)

  • Most favoured nation (MFN) status provides that for all countries that are members of the World Trade Organization (WTO), all foreign suppliers should be treated equally and without discrimination in respect of all tariffs and other charges and the rules and formalities connected with imports and exports. In effect, MFN says that within the WTO, a member country cannot have any favorite countries for which it cuts a special trade deal.
