Home page picture UK welcomes business

Businesses are able to take greater advantage of European markets thanks to the EU Services Directive which came into force at the start of 2010. The benefits are:

- Online licence applications through a Point of Single Contact in every country to establish legal requirements in operating in another country
- Streamlined regulation, including greater recognition of licences in other European countries
- Less red tape as European countries remove unnecessary barriers to business
- A wider customer base.
