Export

Are you ready to take your business beyond the UK?

Exporting is the consignment of goods, technical assistance and services from the shores of the UK to another country.

Expanding into international markets can unlock significant growth opportunities for your business, but knowing where to start can be challenging.

The purpose of an export may vary – from goods sold or services performed, to temporary exports for reasons of exhibition, for repair, test, processing, etc. The exporter’s commercial invoice, certificates and any licences must travel with the goods.
