Every import is preceded by an export from another territory. In this advanced module, participants will gain insights in the barriers upon export and will learn to understand the importance of compliance with all formalities and controls – which have grown in importance in recent years. The sessions relate to the formalities upon export (and the tax implications linked thereto), sanctions, and export controls. Both theory and practice are covered in this interactive module, allowing participants to implement their learnings after successful completion of the programme.
The module will be supervised by Yves Melin (Partner at Cassidy Levy Kent) and Isabel Fressynet (Senior Associate at Cassidy Levy Kent).
