Posted by AndrewT on 27th Sep 2019

With 31st October approaching fast the potential implications for trade with the EU and transport operators moving goods between the UK and EU is becoming clearer. To help road transport operators the DVSA have recently published a pocket guide to give advice on what drivers should do to move goods through roll-on / roll-off locations in the event of a no-deal Brexit. The guidance includes moving goods from the EU to the UK and vice versa. If you are involved in international transportation you can download the guide here. For companies involved in international trade with the EU, import and export declarations as well as security filings will need to be submitted for goods moving between the UK and the EU.  For many companies this will be the first time they have had to do this and businesses will need to be ready to handle customs processes from 1st of November.
