Article summary

HMRC has published new and updated guidance on how to apply for and use a general guarantee account to cover any import duty and import VAT due on goods when they enter the UK. The guidance within the refreshed webpages may not necessarily be new but the pages are worth noting for future reference and bookmarking. Some of the guidance contains simple updates and reference amendments to reflect the end of the transition period having occurred. Some of the guidance published post-IP completion day may also contain substantive updates to reflect changes taking effect in light of the EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement (and related arrangements). Further guidance may be issued, so stakeholders are advised to monitor these pages for updates.

Jurisdiction(s): England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales and European Union
