2. REGISTER FOR A UK OR EU EORI NUMBER

The European Union require an Economic Operator Registration and Identification number (EORI) from all businesses which import or export goods to and from the EU. You will already have an EORI number if you currently trade outside of the EU. If you only trade within the EU, you must register. For example, if you ship from the UK to Germany, you will need to register with the UK authorities and your receiver will need to register with the German authorities. EU EORI numbers will no longer be recognised in the UK. UK EORI numbers will no longer be recognised in the EU. We therefore advise all customers to register for an EORI in your own country as soon as possible. Applications can be made through your country’s government website. UK EORI applications only takes 10 minutes UK businesses can register for an EORI number via the Government website here.
