What Are Service Imports?
A service export is a service that is provided from a person resident in one country to people or companies in another country. As we are brought closer to our foreign friends located overseas through social media and increasingly efficient networks, service exports are becoming an emerging trend around the globe. German imports of services add to the ever-growing goods imports from Australia to Germany. Here are some examples of service imports carried out by German individuals or companies:
– Any experience paid for by a German tourist while in Australia (for example renting a car or partaking in a tour)
– A German company receiving advice from an Australian tax advisor about doing business in Australasia
– Rents paid by a German company for the use of property in Australia (and in the context of freight forwarding, rental of warehouses)
– Australian actors employed by a German film company
When you export goods to Europe from Australia, the process is likely to include German imports of services in some form or another – for example translating documents, training on how to treat or use imported items and hire of personnel for handling.
