WEBINAR ENDED
Introduction to Customs Routines in light of BREXIT Webinar
Wednesday 23rd September
2pm – 3pm
Guest Speaker: Kevin Robinson, Transport and Logistics Professional.

Over the past thirty years, organisations that trade between the UK and the EU have become accustomed to the free movement of goods. This may be about to end on the 31st December 2020.

Is your organisation ready for these changes?

As we approach the end of the UK’s transition period, it is becoming increasingly likely that new border checks and regulations will be imposed on goods moving between the UK and the EU. The responsibility lies with the importer or exporter to ensure that their goods are correctly identified and notified to HMRC. Failure to do so can lead to substantial fines and/or custodial sentences. For those who haven’t been involved in customs processes before, this can be a daunting prospect.

This webinar delivered by Kevin Robinson is designed to inform and guide importers and exporters who have not had to consider customs process before. Topics covered include:

• Origin of goods
• Commodity codes
• Duty calculations
• Documentation
• Incoterms.
