Natalia's multicultural upbringing and rich professional background offer a unique lens on the complexities of international market entry. From understanding VAT regulations to the nuances of packaging requirements, our conversation uncovers the pivotal elements that can make or break your cross-border ventures.

Our deep dive into global e-commerce tax considerations will give you the knowledge to navigate the European market and beyond. Discover why obtaining a VAT number is crucial and how Amazon's role as a marketplace facilitator can alleviate some tax responsibilities for non-EU sellers. We also shed light on the hurdles European sellers encounter when entering the US market, stressing the significance of mastering regional tax regulations to ensure your business thrives internationally.

Finally, we explore promising avenues for expansion beyond the familiar territories of the US and EU.
