English translation of the principle

The inclusion in the Unified Economic Agreement between the Cooperation Council states of a provision that they agree on implementing rules concerning each state's treatment of nationals of the other Council states in the same manner as its own nationals, without differentiation or discrimination in engaging in commerce. This does not imply automatic permission to do so unless the relevant legislation is enacted.
Arabic original
تضمين الاتفاقية الاقتصادية الموحدة بين دول مجلس التعاون النص على اتفاقها على القواعد التنفيذية الخاصة بمعاملة كل دولة لمواطني دول المجلس الأخرى نفس معاملة مواطنيها دون تفريق أو تمييز في مجال الاشتغال بالتجارة. لا يفيد السماح بذلك تلقائياً ما لم يصدر التشريع الخاص بذلك.
