exportál

Exportál is a Hungarian verb meaning to export, or to send goods or services from one country to another for sale. It is used in business and trade contexts to describe the act of selling domestically produced products abroad.

The related noun form is exportálás, which denotes the act or process of exporting.

Economically, exportál refers to exports—the value of goods and services produced domestically and sold abroad. Exports contribute to a country’s gross domestic product (GDP), influence employment, and affect the balance of trade. Exports can include physical goods, services, or digital products, and they are often measured in monetary value and volume. The export sector interacts with exchange rates, productivity, and global demand, shaping economic growth and competitiveness.

Regulatory and practical aspects accompany export activities. Export is subject to national and international rules, including licensing for sensitive or dual-use items, sanctions, and trade controls. In the European Union, member states apply common external tariffs and unified export controls; Hungary implements these policies through national authorities. Typical procedures include export declarations, customs clearance, and the use of Incoterms to define responsibilities between seller and buyer. Businesses may also use export financing and insurance to manage payment and political risk.

Etymology and related terms: The term exportál is a loanword in Hungarian, derived from Latin exportare and carried into Hungarian via Western European languages. A common noun for the act of exporting is kivitel; “export” is also used in business contexts. The corresponding verb for importing is importál, and the noun for importing is importálás or behozatal.
