According to Article XX of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), each nation is allowed to impose import schemes and customs procedures as a means to protect its citizen's public health, safety, and morals, provided that these measures do not arbitrarily or unjustifiably discriminate against foreign products or are a disguised restriction on international trade. This provision has been carried forward in the World Trade Organization (WTO) agreements.
