Start-up considerations
Selling to Italy is often best achieved by appointing an agent or a distributor.
Contact the DIT team in Italy at: www.gov.uk/government/world/organisations/uk-trade-investment-italy#contact-us to help find tax and legal advisers before entering into any distribution or agency contracts. Always seek appropriate trade and bank references before consigning goods.
