<p>The UK currently ensures appropriate sanitary and phytosanitary checks are in place
at the border through the use of the EU’s TRACES import notification system. In the
event of a no deal, the UK will lose access to this system. To prepare for this scenario,
the Government has developed the UK’s own import notification capability.</p><p>This
capability was in place for exit on 12 April and will be in place for exit on 31 October.
This will ensure resources are targeted appropriately, so that sanitary and phytosanitary
checks can continue to protect the UK from risks to public health while delays at
the border are minimised.</p><p> </p>
