BREXIT CHECKLIST for TRADERS.

Assess whether your business trades with the UK or moves goods through the UK.

If it does:

• REGISTER your business with the national customs authority to trade with non-EU countries, if
  you have not done so yet.
• ASSESS whether your business has the necessary resources and capacity (staff, access to IT
  systems, storage…) and holds all necessary customs authorisations to import or export.
• ASK your national customs authority which existing customs simplifications and facilitations
  are available for your business, such as guarantees and transit simplifications.
• CONSIDER applying for Authorised Economic Operator (AEO) status from your national customs
  authority.
• TALK to your business partners (suppliers, intermediaries, carriers…) as Brexit might also impact
  your supply chain.
