Brexit

DPD Local have sent us a newsletter concerning Brexit. Whilst most of our customers are in the UK, we have some in Europe and this will be of interest to them.

What you need to know about Brexit

On 29 January 2020, the European Parliament ratified the Brexit withdrawal agreement that had been agreed earlier in January by the UK Parliament.

The UK left the EU on 31 January 2020, and the transition period as stated in the Withdrawal Agreement begins.

The transition period will last until 31 December 2020, allowing the UK and the EU to negotiate a trade deal that would be applicable as of 1 January 2021.

During this period nothing changes for trade of goods and services between the UK and the EU. Goods can continue circulating freely between the UK and the EU without customs declarations or controls.

DPD Local will ensure that we are 'Brexit Ready' whatever the scenario and whatever the final date of exit so that you can continue to send parcels to your customers throughout the EU.
