Sinds 1 januari 2021 is er een nieuwe handelssituatie ontstaan tussen het Verenigd Koninkrijk en de Europese Unie. Er is daardoor veel veranderd in de manier waarop beide landen zaken kunnen doen met elkaar. Om bedrijven zo goed mogelijk te informeren over de nieuwe regels heeft de Britse overheid een lange lijst van guidances gepubliceerd. Hieronder een opsomming van de belangrijkste guidances voor, onder andere, de import van dieren en dierlijke producten en planten en plantaardige producten.
Voor informatie van de Nederlandse overheid over de nieuwe regels en processen kunt u terecht bij het Brexitloket.
Algemene informatie van de Britse overheid is te vinden via de Brexit: new rules are here website. Informatie over de nieuwe importprocedures in het VK is te vinden in het Border Operating Model.
De Britse guidances worden nog met enige regelmaat geüpdatet met nieuwe of aanvullende informatie. Controleer dus altijd of u de laatste informatie heeft gezien.
