States may need to intervene in international trade for economic, political and social
reasons. In this study, the effects of tariffs on international trade were investigated
by using statistical techniques. According to the test results, the average of trade
openness for countries with medium and high tariff complexity is equal. On the other
hand, for countries with low tariff complexity, the average of trade openness score
is statistically higher than those with a commercially clear score of middle and high
tariff complexity. As a result, it can be concluded that the level of complexity of tariffs
adversely affects trade openness, which should be taken into account when designing
international trade policy.
