The regulations come into force on 11 August 2021.
The Customs Tariff (Preferential Trade Arrangements) (EU Exit) (Amendment) (No. 2) Regulations, SI 2021/871 amend the Customs Tariff (Preferential Trade Arrangements) (EU Exit) Regulations, SI 2020/1457 to give effect to the preferential customs import duty rates agreed under a number of free trade arrangements entered into between the UK and other countries.
