Fixed INRs are determined when a concession is negotiated bilaterally between two WTO Members. When concessions were offered using a tariff cutting formula (e.g. Kennedy or Tokyo rounds) there was no bilateral negotiation and therefore no exchange of INRs. In such cases, INRs were held by the principal supplier for a given item and market. When the issue arose, the principal supplier was determined from the last three years for which import statistics were available. Such INRs are called "floating" INRs.
