HMRC funding for business

If you move goods between the UK and countries in the EU, you need to follow new customs and tax rules.

Your business will be affected by the new rules if you:

• buy goods from an EU seller and bring them into the UK

• send goods you’ve sold to a buyer in an EU country

• haven’t exchanged money but need to move equipment that you use for your business, between the UK and the EU.

This potentially means a lot of changes are needed, and HMRC have options for supporting thid

Businesses can now apply for the SME Brexit Support Fund. Smaller businesses can get up to £2,000 to pay for practical support, including training or professional advice to adjust to new customs, rules of origin and VAT rules when trading with the EU.
