Pain Points
Trade Pain Points and Possibilities
Despite not being a member of the EU, Switzerland has managed to achieve an incredible level of integration with the rest of Europe. Having several free trade agreements with countries across the globe, Switzerland is a popular IT hardware import destination. However, Switzerland is not without complications. Road freight is particularly challenging, requiring specific entry permits, which are frequently missed. Certain carriers run into this issue more often than others, and others can charge excessively.
