answer text <p>We have delivered a unique set of arrangements to facilitate internal UK trade and to remove unacceptable customs processes.</p><p> </p><p>The Windsor Framework expands the number of businesses able to be classed as UK internal traders, who are eligible to be authorised under the new UK Internal Market Scheme. This will allow them to move goods that are ultimately destined to remain in the UK via the customs green lane, following its full implementation in September 2024. Traders moving goods through the green lane will not face burdensome international customs processes, pay tariffs or be subject to routine customs checks.</p><p> </p><p>Where food goods are for retail sale in Northern Ireland, businesses will also be able to register for the Retail Movement Scheme for agrifood goods which will enable them to benefit from a far simplified single SPS document per lorry and face radically reduced agrifood checks.</p><p> </p><p>If goods are destined for the EU, they must move through the red lane and would be subject to the same entry and food standards checks and customs declarations applicable for food movements to the rest of the EU.</p><p> </p>
