As expected at the 11th hour a trade deal was struck! The transition period for the UK leaving the EU has now ended. The trade deal has been ratified by the UK Parliament so from 1 January we are trading with the EU quota and tariff “free”.

Postponed VAT accounting starts on 1 January 2021, but what does it mean and what effect does it have to businesses?

Will we or won’t we get a free trade agreement with the EU? Whatever the outcome our Brexit 20 point checklist will help you to prepare for the changes on 1st January 2021.
