Domestic business refers to commercial transactions that occur within the geographical boundaries of a single country. It benefits from low transaction costs, short production to sale periods, and encouragement of small businesses. International business involves manufacturing and trade across national borders in a global context. It includes cross-border sales, investments, and logistics between two or more countries. Conducting international business presents greater challenges than domestic operations due to differences in customs, cultures, currencies, regulations, and economic environments between nations. Careful planning of business strategies is required to successfully expand operations globally.
