日本語
日本とＥＵ ＥＰＡに署名｜ＮＨＫ（下記は抜粋）
チーズ
日本が現在２９．８％の関税をかけているカマンベールやモッツァレラといったいわゆる「ソフトチーズ」を含む最大３万１０００トンまでの新たな輸入枠を設けます。
この輸入枠の関税は、協定の発効後、年々削減して１５年後に撤廃するとしています。
また、この輸入枠を上回るチーズの関税率は現在の水準を維持します。
豚肉・牛肉
「豚肉」については、日本が価格が安い豚肉にかけている１キロあたり最大４８２円の関税を、協定発効後、９年をかけて５０円まで削減します。
また価格が高い豚肉の４．３％の関税率は９年かけて撤廃します。
「牛肉」は、日本がかけている現在の３８．５％の関税率を、１５年かけて９％まで削減します。
「牛肉」と「豚肉」では、輸入量が急増した際に生産者への影響を緩和するため日本が関税率を引き上げることができる「セーフガード」と呼ばれる措置を導入します。これらは、ＴＰＰ＝環太平洋パートナーシップ協定とほぼ同じ内容になっています。
乗用車／自動車部品
ＥＵは、日本から輸出される「乗用車」にかけている１０％の関税を協定発効の７年後に撤廃するほか、「自動車部品」は、貿易額ベースで９２．１％の品目について協定発効後、関税を即時、撤廃します。

With the largest bilateral trade deal EVER, today we cement Japanese-European friendship. Geographically, we are far apart. But politically and economically we could hardly be any closer. With shared values of liberal democracy, human rights and the rule of law. pic.twitter.com/ICcGTY3XI8

With the signature of the Economic Partnership Agreement with Japan we are making a statement about the future of free and fair trade. The agreement puts fairness and values at its core. There is no protection in protectionism – and there is no unity where there is unilateralism. pic.twitter.com/4vMs7FcfWM
