Import and export
If you are thinking of importing or exporting then you should consider other peoples intellectual property (IP) rights. Infringing someone else's IP rights could prove costly.
IP rights are territorial, that is they only give protection in the countries where they are granted or registered. If you have only registered in the United Kingdom (UK) this may allow others to use your IP abroad without infringing your rights.
If you are thinking about trading internationally then you should consider registering your IP rights abroad.
