Abstract: This paper intends to show that increasing a non-preferential import quota is always superior to joining a customs union, assuming that the customs union is small. However, increasing a non-preferential input quota is not necessarily superior to joining a customs union if the customs union is large and capable of influencing the terms of trade.
