Tarifs are paid by importers not exporters, being that your neighbours are customs officials I would have thought you might know this. Your well aware of the limit on importing meat to CH. Those import tariffs don't stop the Swiss buying foreign meat in CH. | |

"Those import tariffs don't stop the Swiss buying foreign meat in CH." This is because local Swiss meat has astronomic prices!
Quick google search;
Rump steak Coop 100g CHF 8.96
Rump Steak Tesco 100g £1.54 (say CHF 1.90)
Even with a 40% tariff British rump steak would still be less than a third of Swiss prices
