<p>It remains the Government’s priority to leave the EU with an agreement. If the
UK leaves the EU with an agreement, the UK will enter the implementation period during
which eggs and eggs products from the EU will be still subject to tariff-free access.</p><p>
</p><p>If the UK leaves the EU without an agreement, the UK would implement a temporary
tariff regime, which was announced on March 13<sup>th</sup> 2019. The temporary tariff
is a balanced tariff policy which aims to minimise costs to business and mitigate
price impacts on consumers, while also supporting UK producers as far as possible.</p><p><br>
Government will continue to listen to stakeholder feedback regarding the temporary
tariff, and have committed to holding a public consultation on the UK’s permanent
MFN tariff policy. We welcome feedback from the egg sector to help us shape the permanent
MFN policy.</p>
