What to know before exhibiting or visiting from Spain
The fair is held at the Trade Fair Center Messe München, in Munich. No dates are published on this page. Confirm them, and the admission conditions for visitors and exhibitors, on the official ISPO website before booking travel or stand space.
For a company exporting from Spain, Germany belongs to the EU single market. Goods in free circulation moving between Spain and Germany do not pay customs duties. What does need checking is the paperwork for moving samples or stock, and the VAT treatment of the operation. Both depend on whether the goods are sold, returned or left in Germany. Your tax advisor or the AEAT can confirm the right procedure for your case.
The import table on this page shows which product chapters weigh most in the destination's purchases. Apparel and clothing accessories (chapters 61 and 62) and footwear (chapter 64) are among the largest, after chapter 71, which covers pearls and precious stones. If your range falls in one of those chapters, the fair is a good place to test demand. If it falls in a chapter further down the table, such as wool or cotton, the audience may be narrower.
The fair presents the whole value chain: materials, brands, products and sports innovation. That means you can attend as a brand seeking distributors, or as a supplier of materials and components looking for brands. Decide which role you play before choosing the stand format or the visitor agenda.
