What is an example of an 'invisible export'?

An invisible export refers to services that are sold to foreign countries rather than physical goods. In the context of the choices provided, a significant example of an invisible export is U2 playing a concert in Spain. This event represents a service that is provided by a band based in one country (Ireland) to an audience in another (Spain). The revenue generated from ticket sales and associated activities benefits the exporting country without the movement of tangible goods.

This contrasts with the other options, which either involve the import of goods or are not exports at all. Buying local fruits is a domestic transaction that does not involve international exchange, while importing electronics from Japan clearly falls under the category of visible imports. Exporting raw materials to the UK also represents a physical good being sent to another country, making it a visible export rather than an invisible one.
