Therefore, it is important to find the necessary expertise to enable your company to increase its competitiveness and market position.

The Trade Council’s experts can assist you with assessing trade barriers and providing advice and guidance on technical export issues on the export markets. You can ask questions about customs regulations, VAT and duties. We can also help answer questions about document requirements, provisions contained in free trade agreements, rules of origin, import and export licences, transport regulations, or rules governing compulsory labelling and product regulations.

We answer tariff-related questions regardless of whether it relates to goods produced in Denmark or goods from another country of origin.

Besides advising you about customs regulations and trade barriers, we also conduct tariff analyses for your company. It can provide you with an overview of which free trade agreements other countries have signed, such as China.
