服務的產值逾全球國民生產毛額的三分之二，相關投資也幾乎達全球外人直接投資總額的三分之二。以貿易加值為核心的統計，更估計服務貿易占今日全球貿易比重近百分之五十。雖然其重要性與日俱增，但全球服務貿易多邊規範之發展直到1986年烏拉圭回合談判才展開。由於至今不過才30餘年的歷史，相較於貨品貿易，無論是在自由化程度、規則之發展、或爭端案例之累積方面，仍有相當大的進步空間。
另一方面，其多邊規範建立之初固然是仿照貨品貿易規範，但由於服務之無形，以及服務提供者角色之重要，也使得服務貿易規範與貨品貿易規範有相當多不同之處。再加以服務貿易之主要障礙並非在邊境，而是在國內規章，不僅導致貿易統計資料不易蒐集，自由化之推動也因涉及各國之國內法規而相對困難。
了解上述問題，並掌握規範之發展趨勢：包括雙邊、複邊與多邊場域已有之進展即為本課程之重點
