Brexit Business Advice Hub
What has changed
From 1 January 2021 the UK left the EU. Under the Terms of the Trade and Cooperation agreement (“TCA”) with Europe, it has been agreed that there will be no duty on EU/UK origin goods traded between the EU and UK.
But this does not mean we have frictionless trade as import and export declarations will have to be completed and duty may still apply to goods which originate from third countries.

VAT & Customs: Import & Export Declarations
If goods are exported from the UK into the EU, export declarations will need to be submitted after 1 January 2021. You will need to consider whether you will complete these yourself or whether you appoint an agent to submit the records on your behalf.

VAT & Customs: Customs Warehousing
Customs duty and VAT can be postponed on the importation of goods through the use of customs warehousing as the payment of duty and VAT will be deferred until the goods are removed from the warehouse (whether physical or virtual – controlled by software).

VAT & Customs: Commodity/HS Code Review
All goods must be classified when they are imported or exported.
