Exports from Pakistan almost doubled during 2016-22, while at the same time imports largely remained at the same level, while witnessing drop in some years, over the same period. The increase in exports from Pakistan to Czech Republic can largely be attributed to GSP Plus status, due to which Pakistan’s major exports have duty free access to the European Union.
