The article reflects the economic relations between the Safavid state of Azerbaijan and England in the second half of the 16th century - beginning of the 17th century. It provides detailed information on the visits of British merchants to Azerbaijan, and the trade privileges they received from the state for the export of silk. At that time, English merchants were not only exempted from customs duties, but also guaranteed the patronage of local rulers. The main type of British exports to the East was broadcloth due to the comercial advantages, it was possible to sell a bolt of broadcloth for 150-160 shahis in the cities of the Safavid state. In addition, markets in the cities of the Safavid state were more in demand for densely woven fabrics, black and other colored fabrics, crimson silk velvet, satin and red woolen fabrics than products produced in Western Europe. All of this was possible because the ruler of the Safavid state gave a state order to British merchants to meet his country's needs for European goods.
