Abstract

RCEP is the first free trade arrangement between China and Japan. This paper takes the tariff concession arrangement between China and Japan under RCEP as the research object, puts forward determinants and uses the ordered Probit model for empirical testing. The research finds that, Japan has a tendency to trade protection based on national interests, and the two countries have different interest demands for products with high level of intra-industry trade. China prefers protection to safeguard group interests, while Japan prefers liberalization to promote intra-industry trade. Meanwhile, both countries show the feature of pursuing diversification of export markets, but only China follows the principle of reciprocity in tariff concessions. The findings will provide reference for China to formulate tariff concession arrangements when signing high-level FTAs with developed economies or RCEP +, CPTPP and other RTAs in the future.
