Border and Protocol Delivery Group has published a new version of the GB Border Operating Model, outlining the processes for inbound GB border controls phased in from 1 January 2022. Key dates for importers and EU suppliers include:

• 1 January (start of pre-notification for all animal origin and plant products consignments, end of easement on suppliers’ declarations);
• 1 July (safety and security certificates now required and start of documentary and physical checks for meat and meat products at GB border control posts);
• 1 September (start of checks for dairy and dairy products); and
• 1 November (start of checks for fish and composite food products).

Staged Customs Controls’ end on 31st December, meaning that the free flow of goods that has prevailed since Brexit Day will come to an end on 31/12/22.

All EU imports will need to be accounted for with a full customs declaration. There will be new sanitary and phytosanitary (SPS) arrangements, new pre-notification deadlines and a new inspection regime. This will apply to all EU exports and imports.

This webinar will discuss the changes and what practical steps you can take to reduce the possibility that your goods will be delayed at the UK border as well as what economic impact we should expect from the full implementation of the Trade Continuity Agreement.
