EU Exit - Downloads

The UK exited the European Union (EU) at 11pm on 31 December 2020.

In the run up to that exit BIFA campaigned to ensure that the movement of the UK’s visible import and export trade did not become overburdened by over complicated trade procedures.

BIFA is a neutral body and will provide information to support our members with legislative changes from 1 January 2021.
