Developing countries benefit from preferential treatment when exporting to Sweden or other developed countries through
The Generalized System of Preferences (GSP). The Swedish trade rule of GSP is in accordance with EU GSP and preferential treatment means that industrial products are entitled to duty reductions when a developing country exports to Sweden. The purpose of the GSP trade rule is to promote exports, and thus economic growth, in developing countries.
Other Swedish trade rules and regulations is the extension of GSP, the so-called Everything But Arms initiative, which means that the Least Developed Countries have been granted duty- and quota-free access for all products under GSP.
