Sell in United Kingdom
Thinking about expanding from Canada to United Kingdom?
Selling software from Canada into the United Kingdom means bridging PIPEDA and UK GDPR requirements and translating Canadian English and French documentation into polished British English. You’ll need to demonstrate UK GDPR compliance under the Data Protection Act, appoint a privacy representative, and secure ISO 27001 or Cyber Essentials certifications. Integration with UK-favoured platforms such as Salesforce, Sage or Workday—and backing your solution with UK-based pilot deployments—helps build trust with security teams.
Your go-to-market approach should balance direct SaaS or licensing models against partnerships with UK VARs or managed-service providers—each demanding British English partner trainings and margin agreements in GBP. Canada-based support teams must cover GMT/BST hours, handle inquiries in native-level English, and uphold SLA commitments. UK VAT registration, net-30 invoicing cycles and purchase-order workflows add financial complexity, so establish compliant billing processes early. Without a UK-based technical liaison or customer success manager, Canadian vendors often face cultural, regulatory, and operational barriers that slow their British growth.
