Our Carnet team is currently preparing for the busy trade show season, and coming up next is EMO Hannover, the world’s leading production technology trade show, which will be re-launching for the first time since the pandemic this September. The show will take place at Messe Hannover and its focal themes are “the future of business,” “the future of connectivity,” and “the future of sustainability in production.”

EMO Hannover is the perfect place for innovation, debate and the formation of new business partnerships. Organised by VDW, the German Machine Tool Builders’ Association, the event represents the interests of those in the machine and tool industry, and serves to provide an interface between industry and production technology.

Business West receives lots of Carnet applications from companies and individuals within the production tech sector. These people are often taking their equipment abroad to display their equipment at trade shows, and the numbers have shot up since the pandemic. 

The social side of trade fairs – the mingling, the chatting and getting to know people on the trade fair floor – is invaluable when it comes to forging important business relationships. As a result, businesses are very happy to be back, promoting their products and expanding their prospects.

Whether you are going to a trade fair in Germany or even further afield, an ATA Carnet can greatly simplify the temporary export process. Carnets assure compliance but also allow you to pass through customs without paying the usual duties and taxes. Effectively, they act as a passport for goods, and as a result, are being more and more widely used by temporary exporters – especially those going to trade shows.
