answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/03/2019 answer text <p>It remains government policy to secure a deal with the EU but, in the event of a no deal, trade with the EU will become subject to customs controls as is the case now for trade with the rest of the world.</p><p> </p><p>Businesses will need to consider, based on their own circumstances, how they want to engage with the customs system in the future. Most currently choose to appoint a customs agent to make declarations for them, but they can also use commercial software to self-serve. Recognising business concerns, HMRC has introduced a number of temporary easements to help business and to maintain the flow of trade across borders. Businesses should apply for an EORI on-line now and where appropriate, register for Transitional Simplified Procedures (TSP).</p> answering member printed Lord Bates question first answered 05/03/2019 14:52:22 answering member 1091 label Biography information for Lord Bates
