Brexit related information
UK to the EU
When exporting from the United Kingdom to the European Union, the trader/seller must include their EORI number in any preference statement issued to their EU customer, regardless of the value.
EU to the UK
When exporting from the EU to the UK, any exporter can make a statement of origin with just the EORI number if the value of the consignment is 6,000 euros (currently £5,700). The EU exporter must have a Registered Exporter (REX) number and include it in the statement if the amount exceeds this limit.
Statement of origin
The statement of origin must be provided on an invoice or other commercial document (other than a bill of lading) that describes the originating product in sufficient detail to allow identification.

We understand that this facilitation will be available to all without the need to apply for it.

The EU / UK Trade & Cooperation Agreement (TCA) only allows for the duty free movement of UK and EU originating goods.
For example: • Goods originating from China must pay duty on entry to the UK even if they are duty paid in the EU. • Goods originating in the UK can be imported into Germany duty free with the correct origin statement. To claim preferential status the requirements are slightly different depending on the direction of flow:
