The European Commission is negotiating TTIP as openly as possible.

A final agreement would have 24 chapters, grouped together in 3 parts:

1. Market access
2. Regulatory cooperation
3. Rules

And as part of our latest transparency initiative, we're publishing:

• new 2-page factsheets, in plain language
• negotiating texts we've given US negotiators:
  • EU textual proposals on parts 2 and 3 of the TTIP – these set out how we'd want a final deal to read, line by line
  • EU position papers– what we want to achieve in a chapter.

We will publish further texts as they become available.

We will make the whole text of the agreement public once negotiations have been concluded – well in advance of its signature and ratification.

For the text of a recently completed EU trade agreement, see the text of the EU-Canada Free Trade Agreement (CETA).
