UK customs and trade news & customs intermediaries standards

UK customs and trade news & customs intermediaries standards

For companies involved in trade with the UK, keeping up with changes in customs legislation, guidance and professional standards is essential. Recent developments can affect importers, exporters and customs intermediaries, requiring businesses to adapt their procedures and compliance practices.

This webinar will provide a concise and practical overview of the most important UK customs and trade developments of recent weeks, together with a closer look at the recently published standards for customs intermediaries.

During the webinar, we will:

  • provide an overview of the latest UK legal and policy developments in customs and international trade;
  • highlight key changes and explain their practical implications for businesses;
  • discuss the recently published Standard for Customs Intermediaries, focusing on their importance for customs brokers, the changes they introduce and what they will mean for the way customs intermediary services are provided.
