Businesses have described Britain’s Brexit border plans as being in “complete disarray” after it emerged the introduction of some checks on EU imports will be delayed.
Post-Brexit border rules, due to come into force on 30 April, will require many meat, dairy and plant products from the EU to be physically checked at government border control posts (BCPs).
But trade bodies have said fresh confusion about when the checks would begin were “incredibly challenging” for business planning, while others said serious questions remained about the government’s readiness for the regime.
Last time I checked this there are different standards for stuff that’s only meant for export from the EU vs stuff that’s for EU consumption. It’ll still likely be fine, but cannot assume it’ll be the same standard.
