As part of BTHA membership, we strive to keep members informed with the most up to date advice and guidance on industry related issues.

Trade Guide

Keeping our members up to date with the latest advice and guidance on trade and legal issues is a core part of our service to members.

Our solicitors, DLA Piper, offer our members an initial FREE 15-minute telephone consultation for members who have legal queries that require a quick response. The BTHA communications and public affairs team can help with any other business queries with expert help on IP, combatting illegal toys, customs issues and other issues. Contact natasha@btha.co.uk for help with business queries.

There are a few questions which are frequently asked by members and from those we have developed some guidance for members.
