BREXIT CHECKLIST
INSIGHT INTO ACTION
INTRODUCTION
From 1 January 2021 businesses that deal with Europe will have to follow new rules on exports, imports, tariffs, data and hiring. The UK left the EU on 31 January 2020, and a transition period commenced allowing both parties time to negotiate a new trade agreement. During this transition period, the UK has remained part of the Customs Union and Single Market. The transition period ends on 31 December 2020 and if a trade deal has not been agreed by then, the UK and EU could be trading on WTO terms from 1 January 2021. While there is still uncertainty, we want to you plan ahead. This simple checklist outlines some of the actions you can be taking now to help get your business ready. Our experienced Customs Brokerage team are here to support your cross-border shipping requirements, whatever the outcome of the negotiations.
