Barriers to Export for Non-Exporting Firms in Developing Countries‪.‬

INTRODUCTION Although all businesses both from developed and developing countries face some sort of barriers to entry in global markets, companies in developing countries have additional barriers that they must overcome. Firms from developing countries are especially affected by global competition and protective measures such as, tariffs, quota, monetary barriers, and non-tariff barriers imposed by the governments of the countries in which they wish to market their products. Presence of barriers to export usually makes the domestic market more attractive and influences companies to lose interest in entering international markets.
