The GATT survived, but remained intact only due to the Protocol of Provisional Application of the General Agreement of Tariffs and Trade which was concluded in 1947 and which came into force in 1948.
The GATT completed 8 rounds of multilateral trade negotiations (MTNs). The Uruguay Round (the 8th round) concluded with the signing of the Final Action April 15, 1994, in Morocco and produced the World Trade Organization (WTO) and it annexes.
