1. Look up the stock exchanges in the country that you want to invest in. Some online brokerage firms located domestically offer the ability to invest in foreign companies using foreign currencies.
2. Be aware of the additional expenses and challenges involved in investing in foreign exchanges. Not only might it be the case that you need to pay for taxes in two countries, complications will be introduced through changing currency values and fees related to exchange.
3. Consider purchasing American Depository receipts. These derivative securities move up and down depending on the value of stocks located on foreign exchange and can be traded freely just like any other stock.
