Foreign Import Regulations
Comply with Foreign Import Regulations
Understand the import regulation and get tariff rates before you sell to a foreign market.
Almost all countries require documentation for imported products and have certain regulations that must be met to ensure safety, quality, and conformity. These requirements often vary country-to-country. In many cases, U.S. exporters will face additional regulations, testing, labeling, or licensing requirements for their products before they can sell to foreign markets. When developing a time frame for your export plan, take these potential factors into account in your international market research.
