Written Question
Exports: Switzerland
Thursday 8th February 2024

Asked by: Tanmanjeet Singh Dhesi (Labour - Slough)

Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what steps her Department has taken to help increase exports to Switzerland since 2022.

Answered by Greg Hands - Minister of State (Department for Business and Trade)

The Government is committed to driving forward export growth and helping UK businesses export to markets across the globe, including Switzerland. In January 2023 the Government extended the Services Mobility Agreement, allowing service suppliers to travel to Switzerland more easily. In December 2023, HM Treasury signed the Berne Financial Services Agreement, providing market access to service suppliers into the Swiss market.

The Government are currently negotiating an enhanced FTA, which aims to provide deeper market access for services suppliers and remove tariff barriers.

Switzerland is the UK’s 7th largest export market. UK businesses can access DBT’s export service support via Great.gov.uk.
