HMRC has released a tool to to help UK businesses find out: 

  • what they need to do to prepare for the UK leaving the EU 
  • what’s changing in their industry 
  • information on specific rules and regulations. 

Businesses need to answer 7 questions to get guidance relevant to them and their sector. You can access the tool at Prepare your business for the UK leaving the EU

Don't forget that the HMRC training grants are still available until 5th April 2019, or all grant funding is allocated. You can get up to 70% of your training costs covered to help prepare your business for the UK’s departure from the European Union.

The Institute's one day Customs Procedures & Documentation training course covers everything that you will need to know to enable goods to be imported and exported post Brexit.
