Rules of Origin: Application and Ways to Mitigate Business Impact

The Trade and Co-operation Agreement between the UK and the EU includes new Rules of Origin, stipulating which goods are, and are not, subject to zero tariffs. The rules are very complex, with different rules applying to non-specific and product specific goods. There are also complications in how zero tariffs are applied to these goods when they cross in and out of different customs territories. In this webinar, our Trade Policy Expert, William Bain, along with our partners at Deloitte will help explain the new Rules, how they are being applied and what this means in practice for your supply and distribution chains. We’ll provide guidance on the processes for claiming zero tariffs on non-specific and product specific goods - including what supporting documentation and suppliers’ declarations you need. We’ll also provide advice on what you can do to mitigate the impacts and associated costs of the new Rules on your business. This webinar will be specifically relevant and helpful for colleagues responsible for customs, operations and logistics, as well as legal.
