Trade barriers in export of Finnish goods to Russian Federation

Abstract

This work was written with the purpose of explaining and identifying trade barriers obstructing exports of goods from Finland to Russian Federation. With many changes in international trade, it is important to realise possible problems and solutions for them when engaging into exporting goods to another country. This work was written to realise those. The information for it was collected from several national reports concerning trade with Russia and from a couple of interviews with local businessmen, who have experience in exporting goods to Russia. As a result, some of the potential risks were shown and possible solutions for avoiding them, as well as engaging into safer business operations, were found. At the current moment these data might help Finnish companies, when engaging into business with Russian Federation and might also help in updating the, already obtained, information. Key
