'''Nontariff Barriers''' are government measures, such as import monitoring systems and variable levies, other than [[tariff|tariffs]] that restrict [[imports]] or that have the potential for restricting international [[trade]]. They are imposed to protect domestic jobs and wages from foreign competition. In wartime they are used to wage economic warfare against an enemy.
