There is a wealth of support and advice for traders on how to navigate the potentially choppy waters of international trade.
Still the best advice is that skydiving is easier when you are attached to an experienced skydiver!
The Trade Facilitation Commission has been created to promote trade and challenge any obstacles in its way - we encourage traders and would-be traders to engage with the Commission in a forward-thinking manner with the overall aim of improving the trading experience and enabling growth through increased trade.
The Trade Facilitation Commission has issued their report entitled ENSURING ECONOMIC GROWTH
Lord Agnew, chairman of the Trade Facilitation Commission (TFC) : "For the UK to thrive, we must streamline and digitise our trade processes, eliminating barriers to growth and strengthening our position as a global trading nation."
At an event held in the House of Lords on 5th November, The Trade Facilitation Commission released their detailed report and announced a series of proposals aimed at boosting the UK’s economic growth by modernising and simplifying customs and border processes. As the government places economic growth at the forefront of its agenda, the TFC urges immediate action on trade facilitation to support UK businesses and increase GDP per capita.
