• This Course caters to anyone who for personal or professional reasons would like to comprehend what International Trade Law is. It’s intended for students, professionals, and non-professionals with or without a legal background. You may work already in or envision a bright career in law, finance, industry, education, academia, or something else.

Why should persons from such diverse backgrounds take this Course?

• That’s because our world has changed drastically. We now live in the most previously unimagined insecure times. It’s a “here today, gone tomorrow” scene. We all wonder, How can I make a living? What if I get fired or sick, or my employer winds up? How can I feel financially secure enough to protect myself and my dependents today and tomorrow?
• We are all scouting for business opportunities to put food on our tables.
• The bottom line is that you can’t do business if you are unaware of the laws and rules that can work for or against you.
• Successful entrepreneurs and their lawyers realize that, and that’s why they win by making those business opportunities a reality.
• Whether you are a public sector lawyer or a private commercial lawyer, you will develop an understanding of International Trade Law and how the free market works within that legal framework.
• You shall understand how government lawyers and diplomats apply public international rules of law when they negotiate international trade agreements to regulate WTO issues. You will also learn how private lawyers apply their domestic laws and the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods 1980 (CISG) when they draft and conclude international commercial contracts.
• International commercial contracts are export and import contracts between private parties situated in different countries. So, if your client wants to sell bulk sugar to a company in another State, you need to discharge your professional responsibilities—that means knowing how to protect your client’s interests. You’ll need to figure out the answers to these legal issues.
• Does the importing State place any import tariffs and other taxes and fees on the product?
• How can you ensure that the exporter won’t exploit your client and accept the goods without completing payment?
• How can you ensure that your client will deliver the goods promptly so that the exporter can’t argue liability?

These are vital factors you must account for:

• The bottom line is that you should be able to handle all those issues once you complete this course.
• You will learn how to provide legal solutions that are tailored to your client’s specific requirements even if your client is a Government or a private person
• When you begin this course, the first thing you will realize is the significance of free trade.

As a starting point,
What do you think free trade is?

• Is FREE TRADE like doing pro bono legal work where one party does everything for the benefit of the other and the greater good? No.
• Free trade is based on capitalism, which our global economic and political security is founded on.
• Every commercial contract that is put into practice draws the world closer to attaining free trade.
