Commodity trading
Trading licence for non-precious ores, with the export regime and offtake contracts that go with it.
What the service covers
- Trading licence from the ministry of mines or of trade.
- Customs registration and export regime by category of ore.
- Review of offtake contracts and the incoterms chosen.
- Local content and subcontracting obligations, where they exist.
What we tell you before we start
Offtake contracts are negotiated before the licence, not after: a licence without a buyer produces nothing, and its renewal may depend on volumes you will not have shipped.
