Passport to Export

Passport to Export is the name of our suite of services and programmes. They have been created to help our businesses access world markets.
Our programmes are designed to help you succeed with exporting, and this is crucial to the long-term growth of local businesses and the Northern Ireland economy.
Five areas of export support
Our cluster of programmes and services are organised in five different areas. They will support you throughout the export process: from building your export skills and knowledge, to helping with researching markets through to assisting you once you have decided on a target market.
We also provide support for testing export markets through trade missions and exhibition attendance and we can offer an excellent graduate placement programme resource to help with your export drive.
Export Skills and Knowledge Workshops
Access to commercial information through our Business Information Centre, specialist market research and assessments by in-market teams
A range of programmes to keep you well-connected on the ground when you visit export markets
A range of trade mission and exhibition initiatives that offer new or inexperienced exporters the opportunities to test market, gather intelligence, attract suppliers, appoint agents and ultimately make sales
Exploring new markets can consume considerable resources so our graduate placement programme can help you approach new markets by using the skills of talented graduates
