The Australian government has launched a 'Free Trade Agreement (FTA) Portal'to help small and medium businesses take advantage of Australia’s new trade agreements with China, Japan and South Korea.
The website offers international trade data and step-by-step guidance so that exporters can understand the FTAs and tariff reductions, and how to gain access to the markets.
A product search offers information on tariff eliminations or reductions, and how to gain certification for export to certain markets.
For example, tariffs, market information and certification requirements are provided for Australian asparagus producers looking to export to Japan.
