GATT: An agreement on waivers granted as exceptions under Article 25, Clause 5 of the GATT. By a majority vote of more than two-thirds of member countries, a specific product is exempt from the obligation to abolish import quantitative restrictions set out in the GATT for a certain period of time, and import restrictions are permitted. The United States obtained this waiver in 1955, largely due to the political and economic power of the United States after World War II. The products covered by the waiver included 14 items, including dairy products and peanuts, but were abandoned due to the agricultural agreement of the Uruguay Round.
