Exporteren naar het Verenigd Koninkrijk

Post-Brexit is het VK een volwaardig derde land — wat betekent dat export vanuit Nederland naar het VK nu gepaard gaat met exportaangifte, een commerciële factuur, paklijst en in veel gevallen een Certificate of Origin. Voor goederen met Nederlandse of EU-oorsprong is een EUR.1 of origin statement vereist om van het nultarief te profiteren onder het TCA (Trade and Cooperation Agreement).
