answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/06/2021 answer text <p>The UK-EU Trade and Cooperation Agreement seeks to reduce the costs for traders of customs processes introduced following the end of the transition period with the EU. It supports efficient customs arrangements and ensures that goods originating in the EU or UK are not subject to tariffs. For goods that do not meet requirements of the rules of origin, tariffs still apply. Following the end of the transition period, sales from UK businesses to EU customers are exports and zero-rated for VAT purposes. This means that the UK business seller should not charge UK VAT on the sale and should retain evidence of export. In order to help businesses adapt to new requirements when trading with the EU, HMRC have launched the £20 million SME Brexit Support Fund to support small and medium sized businesses with new customs, Rules of Origin and VAT rules. The Government has also provided extensive guidance to help businesses adapt to the new requirements.</p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 18/06/2021 11:00:55 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman

question text	To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, with reference to the Answer of 26 March 2021 to Question 170688 on Child Benefit, if he will make it his policy to align the threshold for payment of the High Income Child Benefit Charge in the tax year 2021-22 with the threshold at which people become higher rate taxpayers.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/06/2021 answer text <p>The Government is committed to managing the public finances in a disciplined and responsible way by targeting support where it is most needed. The adjusted net income threshold of £50,000 used in the administration of the High Income Child Benefit Charge (HICBC) only affects a small minority of those with comparatively high incomes. The Government therefore believes that the current threshold for HICBC remains the best option at present. As with all elements of tax policy, the Government keeps this under review as part of the annual Budget process.</p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 18/06/2021 11:00:03 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/06/2021 answer text <p>The Government is delighted that the G7 has come together to back the proposals developed by the OECD to reform the international tax framework.</p><p>Reaching final agreement on a two-pillar solution, which reallocates taxing rights and introduces a global minimum tax, would be a major multilateral achievement that introduces stability into the international tax landscape.</p><p>The Government recognises that there is more to do to reach final agreement with the G20 and 139 members of the OECD Inclusive Framework. Compromise will be necessary to reach that final agreement, including on the level of the global minimum tax rate; a key issue which will need to take into account the position of the wide array of views across the members of the Inclusive Framework. With that consideration in mind a common G7 position has been agreed that could represent a consensus position for the G20 and Inclusive Framework.</p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 18/06/2021 11:02:30 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman
