Considering the advances suffered by the world and its current trends in the commercialization not only of goods but also of services, the question arisen by many refers to whether services can be tradable once they are not tangible. This notion was based on the fact that service exportation do not involve any type of shipping, transportation or cargo and, therefore, cannot be traded. The study requires a brief study on European trade policy and the creation of the European Internal Market and the Free Movement of Goods, as well as the World Trade Organization – WTO – and its relevance to the European Union, and finally an immersion in trade in services and their barriers. With the purpose of achieving this goal, it shall be done, in this paper, a bibliographic research of the legislation and literature related to European and International Trade Policy, as well as related to trade in services and their barriers.52enTrade policyEuropean UnionServicesWorld Trade OrganizationEuropean and International Trade Policy: The importance of the services sector.DEENK Témalista::Jogtudomány
