Preparing for new customs procedures
Event Information
About this event
The UK will be leaving the EU’s customs union at 11pm on 31 December 2020. The UK’s departure will introduce new customs requirements for UK seafood business trading into and out of the EU.
To help seafood businesses to prepare for these changes, we have teamed up with the Institute of Export & International Trade and the Trader Support Service to deliver this FREE one hour webinar.
The webinar will navigate the new customs processes in order to help businesses to continue trading with the EU, once the transition period ends.
The session will cover:
• What are Incoterms and why are they important?
• Do I need a GB, XI or EU EORI number?
• What is the Trader Support Service and how can it help me?
• What can my customs agent do?
• What are customs special procedures?
• What is duty deferment?
