Recognizing the increasing desire for a mutual economic assistance bloc, the Treaty of Tsarlung looks to formally establish a multilateral framework for economic cooperation, trade facilitation, and coordinated development amongst all signatories, active and future, with the explicit aim of;
- Improving, and enhancing regional economic resilience.
- Supporting balanced industrial growth.
- Reducing structural development gaps within Dovani.
- Increasing intra-Dovani trade and production capacity.
As such, the Treaty of Tsarlung will explicitly apply only to economic matters, and will not apply to; domestic policy, national security, or foreign policy.
---------------------------
Trade Bands
---------------------------
To ensure economic harmony, free trade will be rejected in favour a tiered trade preferential system.
Band I (Essential and Complimentary Goods) shall consist of; Raw Materials, Industrial Components and Energy Inputs.
Band I shall consist of the lowest tariffs, expedited customs and long term trade assurances.
Band II (Strategic Development Goods) shall consist of; Machinery, Transport Equipment,, Agriculture, Technology Inputs, and Pharmaceuticals.
Band II shall consist of reduced tariffs, quotas will be permitted, and domestic priority safeguards will be permitted.
Band III (Sensitive Goods) will consist of Cultural industries, financial services, and labour intensive consumer goods.
Band III will not enforce mandatory liberalization, and national control will be retained.
---------------------------
Sensitive Sector Protections
---------------------------
Each signatory state reserved the right to declare any economic sector as Sensitive, and may designate a list of Sensitive Sectors, provided that there are justifications tied to employment, food security, or strategic capacity, and undergo review cycles every 5 years. No other signatory may challenge Sensitive Sectors unless agreed tariff ceilings are challenged, or predatory dumping occurs.
---------------------------
Anti Dumping and Shock.
---------------------------
Emergency measures will be allowed for all signatories if sudden imports threaten domestic production, currency shocks distort competitiveness, or supply chain disruptions occur. All emergency measures will be proportional, temporarily and automatically reviewed.
---------------------------
Gradual Tariff Harmonization.
---------------------------
Signatories may opt into
- Sector specific tariff alignment
- Regional tariff references
- Long term convergence targets (of which, they shall non binding).
No state is required to match another tariffs structure, nor liberalize faster then development capacity allows.
In the event of a signatory being less developed than its peers, they may maintain higher tariffs for a longer period, receive longer phase in periods, and access adjustment support mechanism.
---------------------------
Trade Facilitation and Infrastructure Coordination.
---------------------------
All signatories shall have customs and logistics cooperation, consisting of standardized documentation, shared customs data systems, and priority clearance for Band I goods.
Non binding coordination will also be applied for infrastructure, such as rails, ports, and energy.
---------------------------
Developmental Finance.
---------------------------
The Dovani Development Bank will be created, and have a mandate strictly limited to productive investments, trade enabling infrastructure and industrial upgrading.
The DDB shall be explicitly forbidden from finding budget deficits, mandating privatization, or imposing labour and welfare reforms.
Finally, for trade stability, a pooled in reserve shall be created to cushion balance of payment shocks, stabilize essential imports and prevent crisis driven protectionism.
---------------------------
Governance and Dispute Resolution.
---------------------------
Recognizing the economic nature of the Treaty of Tsarlung, the Dovani Economic Council will be created, with all signatories receiving 1 (one) representative, with weighted voting caps, and an economic mandate only. It shall handle trade disputes, and tariff disputes.
---------------------------
Ascension and Withdrawal.
---------------------------
The Treaty of Tsarlung is open to any state within Dovani, that signals a willingness to engage in coordination mechanisms, accept the trade bands, and commit to transparency.
Withdrawal is permitted with notice (of which, a 8 month notice must be given), and existing obligations will be honoured for a duration of time.

As such, the Khanate of Bianjie and the Democratic Republic of Xsampa shall formally sign the Treaty of Tsarlung.
