Using the Windsor Framework from Great Britain or Ireland

The training was recorded and the recording can be purchased here.

„The greatest number of questions currently are around the detail of trade with Northern Ireland and the operation of UKIMS (the new UK Internal Market Scheme).” – says Anthony Buckley from his experience of advising businesses in Ireland and delivering training.

During the webinar, we will explore the following issues and explain the rewards and pitfalls that accompany the very special position of Northern Ireland, with access to both the GB and EU markets:

• An explanation of the Windsor Framework (WF)
• Changes that emerged from the NI protocol
• Day-to-day working of the WF
• Documentation required for red-routings/ green-routings
• Labelling requirements for green lane
• REACH (chemicals) and foodstuff exceptions
• Movement of goods to GB from ROI via NI
• An overview of the practicalities of the WF including VAT
