tabling member printed	Lord Taylor of Warwick
uin	HL17003
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/07/2019 answer text <p>HMRC’s Import VAT on Parcels online service was launched in February 2019 to allow businesses to prepare for a potential no deal EU exit, and remains open for registrations. HMRC are working with key partners to communicate the potential changes to overseas businesses. While HMRC expect registrations would increase if a no deal exit were confirmed, registration numbers for the online service are not a reliable indicator of overall readiness because there are other ways to pay import VAT on parcels via third parties.</p> answering member printed Lord Young of Cookham question first answered 22/07/2019 12:55:01 answering member 57 label Biography information for Lord Young of Cookham
