Israel enjoys the unique advantage of having free trade agreements with the US, the European Union, and EFTA. Apart from the direct benefits this confers, it also means that Israel can act as an efficient bridging country between these markets. For example, components may be imported into Israel from the US tariff-free, and incorporated into products sold, again tariff free, to EU countries.
Israel has General System of Preferences status for developing countries in Australia, Canada, and Japan, giving Israeli exports to those countries customs duty reductions. Israel also enjoys most-favoured-nation status in the Chinese market.
