EU Transition: Guide to preparations for 1 January 2021

24 Nov 2020

You can now access a guide to the changes hauliers need to take ahead of 1 January.

The Haulier Handbook is a one-stop-shop for key information and advice on customs procedures, clearly setting out how you can prepare yourselves, your vehicles and the goods you carry to continue travelling smoothly across the border and help minimise disruption. 

 The handbook will be translated into multiple languages which will be made available over the next week.
