Keep informed of how changes could affect your business
Invest Northern Ireland is hosting a series of advice clinics on trading with the US across their regional offices in Belfast, Derry~Londonderry, Newry, Omagh, and Ballymena in the coming weeks.
The United States (US) has introduced new tariffs on a wide range of imported products with the possibility of further tariffs to follow.
As both the UK and EU consider their respective responses, all of these have the potential to impact on Northern Ireland companies exporting to and importing from the US.
