	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/11/2020 answer text At the end of the Transition Period (TP), goods moving into Great Britain (GB) from the EU will be subject to customs duties including import VAT, unless a relief is available. Returned Goods Relief (RGR) will be available for goods returning within three years, including pleasure craft, on which UK or EU VAT has been paid. The Government has recognised the challenges faced by owners of goods in returning their possession to GB before the end of the TP in order to qualify for RGR. Accordingly there will be a twelve month period of grace allowing goods located in the EU at the end of the TP that return in 2021 to qualify for RGR regardless of when they left the UK, provided the other conditions for relief are met. answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman grouped question UIN 120959 121022 121023 question first answered 30/11/2020 15:57:32 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman
