On 31st December 2020, the Transition Period for the UK to leave the European Union will end. At present there is still no confirmation of the full conditions (with or without a deal) of the departure of the UK from the EU.

Over the last few days PM Johnson has been in talks with EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen but negotiations between the UK and the EU are continuing.

Without knowing the full details, the GGF is now advising all companies to visit the Government’s website to stay ahead of any breaking news, as regardless of a deal or no deal you will be affected by the change and it is advisable to prepare for changes.

Changes for businesses

The Government advises that you need to act now if you’re:

• importing goods from the EU
• exporting goods to the EU
• moving goods to or from Northern Ireland
• travelling to the EU
• living and working in the EU
• staying in the UK if you’re an EU citizen
• Get the complete list of what you need to do for you and your business.

The GGF will continue to relay any changes as when we receive news or information, in the meantime you can sign up for the Government’s e-alerts/newsletters and also use the personalised Brexit Checker by following this link: https://www.gov.uk/transition
