In Europe, an eleventh-hour UK/EU Free Trade Agreement provides that UK and EU goods are not subject to tariffs or quotas as long as they meet specific ‘rules of origin’; however, importers and exporters will already have noticed a fundamentally changed process at the border as the red-tape curtain has descended across the channel.
