Tariffs on goods entering NI – what are your options?

Delivered 18 August 2021

Topics include

  • a recap of the TSS processes for GB to NI movements
  • tariff options
  • exemptions
  • special procedures
  • the UKTS scheme (now replaced by UKIMS)

Please Note: In the recording we mentioned the UK Trader Scheme, please note the UK Internal Market Scheme (UKIMS) is an enhanced and expanded trusted trader scheme which is replacing the UK Trader Scheme (UKTS) from 30 September 2023. The scheme is a new authorisation for the movement into Northern Ireland of goods not ‘at risk’. Once the Windsor Framework is fully delivered, UKIMS will provide access to the new ‘green lane’ which means that goods staying in the UK will be freed of unnecessary paperwork, checks and duties, with only ordinary commercial information required. The UK Internal Market Scheme is now open for registration. If you want to join the UK Internal Market Scheme, you will need to apply online.
