Germany is an important international trading partner. Many foreign companies continuously do business with Germany and have been importing and exporting goods for many years. Due to Germany’s dominant economy in combination with its geographical location, many companies are active within the German market. On average, over €100 billion is exported to neighbouring countries. However, in most cases, German legislation may differ from your own country.
