On 24 December 2020, the new EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement was agreed in principle and has come into force on 1 January 2021.
From 1 January, the trade and movement of goods between the UK and the EU are subject to the new terms and rules outlined in the Agreement. It has been agreed that for many products no import duties have to be paid on both sides.
For our parcel industry, it means that between the UK and the EU:
Detailed data are required to export goods
Customs declarations are required for each parcel
The goods sent are subject to VAT (and duties when applicable)
Inspections may take place on some goods imported or exported
Rates change as a result of customs handling
Transit times may increase because of linehaul changes and potentially customs checks
Even in the case of a difficult Brexit, we will continue to guarantee the fast and smooth delivery of your orders to the UK.
We will do everything in our power to maintain our premium service on international shipping to the UK and of course we will keep you informed of important news. All the latest information about Brexit is available on this page.
Please be advised that we will charge a storage surcharge for undocumented orders.
