With the conclusion of the General Agreement on Trade and Tariff(GATT) Uruguay round talks and the establishment of World Trade Organization, nations became more and more embarrassing to restrict the foreign trade depending on the tariff barrier and the traditional non- tariff barrier , the green barrier has become the main obstacle of our country (including Zhejiang Province) to limit the foreign trade day by day. On discussing the meaning, cause of formation and forms of the green trade barrier, the dissertation points out that its legal origin is relevant regulations of environmental protection convention, WTO and domestic laws in various countries. Because the legislation of the environmental protection in our country and Zhejiang province lags behind at present and the developed countries keep practicing lip service, the foreign trade of Zhejiang Province has suffered great loss since 2000. The dissertation puts forward the suggested measures to break through the green trade barrier on three different levels, namely, the international laws, the domestic laws and legislation in Zhejiang province. After entering the WTO, we should observe the rules on our own initiative and adapt to the market, turn pressure to motive force, and should make use of the rules in order to actively promote the development of environmental protection in the domestic economic and trade field, and turn barrier to thorough fare. We should also promptly perfect the relevant regulations of the green trade barrier, and try to meet the international standard. As to the greatly effected trade industries (textile, agricultural products and aquatic products), the dissertation tries to give some specific advice on the measures and legislation in particular.
