Training Fees are net of 30% special early booking discount on current dates.

Introduction

International trade is more than just moving goods from one country to another. You have to make sure you're following a myriad of import/export regulations or face delays in shipping, delays in getting in paid, and/or significant penalties for non-compliance.
Major changes are taking place concerning Export & Import Control Systems
(ECS/ICS), Economic Operator Registration and Identification (EORI) and Authorised
Economic Operator approval requirements covering all parts of the EU supply chain,
where lack of approval is very likely to encounter delays by Customs.
