PARCEL DELIVERY AND COURIER SERVICES TO LIECHTENSTEIN

A small country, the principality of Liechtenstein is landlocked by Switzerland and Austria in Central Europe. As a tax haven – although it is now fighting to remove this image – Liechtenstein has become one of the richest GDP per capita countries in the world and unemployment is less than 2%. Home to around 75,000 letter box companies, the low business taxes and easy incorporation rules have seen people set up nominal offices in the country and this accounts for more than a quarter of the near $4 billion revenues. Other key industries include electronics, metal manufacturing, dental products, ceramics and pharmaceuticals. Tourism is also growing here and outdoor enthusiasts will love the steep mountain ranges and rugged countryside that it offers – and it is only 482 miles, or three and a half hours on a plane from the UK. It is a micro nation like no other, and this means that cheap postage to Liechtenstein demands continue to rise.
