Export to Slovakia, import-export and customs regulations

rtc

Slovakia, physically, lies in the centre of the new Europe at the crossroads of one of the world’s oldest trading routes: east-west water route along the River Danube and the overland route from the Baltic to the Mediterranean. This facilitates market accessibility and explains why foreign investors achieved more than 80% export performance on average. The European Union accounts for 40% of Slovakian exports and Germany represents over half of this.
