Nearly 38 percent of China's export enterprises were affected by overseas technical trade barriers in 2013, leading a loss of $66.2 billion, China's quality watchdog said on Tuesday.

The loss was $2.3 billion lower compared to that in 2012, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine said in a statement.

The top five export destinations in terms of technical trade barriers are the US, the EU, Japan, Canada and Latin America, while the top five product categories most affected are machinery and electronic products, textile goods, chemical products, agricultural and food products, as well as toys and furniture, the administration said.
