Seoul City Holds Intensive Seminar for Beginner Export Designers

From Overseas Trademark Registration to Payment Completion

Customs brokers and lawyers will provide a condensed seminar titled ‘Export Beginners Seminar,’ covering only the most essential topics needed on the ground, such as overseas trademark registration and how to prepare international trade contract documents for domestic brands with no export experience. This seminar will be held on the 17th of next month during the Seoul Fashion Week Trade Show at the Design Hall on the 3rd floor of the Dongdaemun Design Plaza (DDP) Design Lab.

Following explanations covering the entire trade process?from international trade contracts, preparation of documents, payment, customs clearance, to overseas trademark registration?a Q&A session will be held.

This is not a one-time seminar. During the Seoul Trade Show period, a ‘Consultation Room’ will also be operated in the meeting room on the 2nd floor of the Design Lab, where interested companies can receive individual consultations on international trade and export logistics.

Businesses or individuals wishing to participate in the ‘Trade Practice/Trademark Application’ seminar at the Seoul Fashion Week Trade Show can apply through pre-registration on the Seoul Fashion Week Trade Show website.
