The European Commission stated on 29 November 2013 that trade barriers between the EU and Guatemala would be lifted as of 1 December 2013, when the trade pillar of the EU–Central America Association Agreement would be applied.

With Guatemala joining, the whole region of Central America can benefit from the agreement, as the deal is already implemented with the other five member countries - Costa Rica, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Honduras and Panama.
